Description

Let’s demystify Strategy and Management coaching!

This is a comprehensive approach to understand Strategy Context, its Content and the Process of its creation. Simply, we believe the Business or Management Coaching requires a Content since requires expertize and first-hand experience relevant for managing organizations, and sometimes, includes giving advice – simply, it requires a coach who understands a business language, perspectives of an Executive or Entrepreneur, organizational processes, systems and similar. Only by building on that kind of strong foundations, a Business coach or a Strategist might gradually develop his own style and fine tune the skills and techniques needed for a long term success.

That is why we have structured this course around three Sections:

- Understanding factors affecting strategy (or, Context and Content of a strategy);

- Different approaches to strategy creation (or, Process of strategy creation); and

- Coaching conversation: frameworks and hints (or, how to apply Coaching skills at Strategy related topics);

In the Section where we discuss factors – our focus is on internal and external factors influencing a perception of a strategist – and the Coach’s role is to question perception validity! Here, we are going to discuss the following factors: company life-cycle, environment (or, market), available resources and capabilities, core competence and competitive advantage, innovation and business models, influence of an organizational structure and culture, influence of stakeholders, risk appetite and the resilience, and leadership itself. Basically – here is the focus on how a leader sees the world. This Section is combining theory and business philosophy packed around many useful tools and frameworks that consultants and managers use in their daily practice – this should help a coach (or a consultant) to structure his sessions and ask relevant questions for the Strategy related Context and Content.

In the next Section where we discuss different approaches to strategy creation – we are focusing on mental schemes of a strategist – the Coach’s role is to question a thought processes of a strategist! Here, we are going to present 10 different approaches like Classic, Strategic planning, Positioning, Entrepreneurial, Learning, like a Pirate, and similar. The point is to explore and distinguish different possibilities for the strategy creator.

In the last Section, we are going to help you better understand how to apply coaching skills to the Strategy related topics. We are going to present here:
