Move beyond traditional coaching constructs
Enterprise-wide Business Partner™
We need to move beyond traditional coaching constructs for ourselves and our leaders: to one of being an Enterprise-wide Business Partner™ to invoke a 360° – approach to coaching by considering all aspects of our clients…their organzation, their competitors, the environment, the government, economics, social justice and their personal lives.
Apparent singular client issues are no longer isolated and as coaches we must pay attention to everything our clients touches.
Coaches who believe in being Enterprise-Wide Business Partners™ (EBP) with their clients
“These coaches help transform the lives of those leaders who transform the world.™”
In this role, the EBP approaches the engagement through a systemic lens and wears many hats.
As a “business partner,” the EBP can pivot, depending on the situation, between coach, trusted advisor, mentor, and consultant.
The EBP does not shy away from complexity and fully embraces the messiness in which their clients often find themselves.
The EBP comes with a 360º, multi-level perspective and belief system that embraces the client in the room while being completely aware of the impact of those not in the room.
The EBP knows the organization, the competition, the market dynamics, and much more.
As a result, the EBP becomes an integral part of the organization.
Coaches who believe in being Enterprise-wide Business Partners™ (EBP) with their clients
“These coaches help transform the lives of those leaders who transform the world.™”
Expanding the Possibilities
Any combination of these issues can present a perfect storm.
