Young executives sometimes have been promoted very quickly up through the organisation. The Company wants to keep them on track, keep them happy and motivated, and able to manage the pressures of an executive role. The executive still wants to have a life outside of work. Talent Futures coaching helps high potentials manage the pressure while filling in gaps in managerial knowledge and experience. For example:
- The newly appointed MD in an investment bank is female and 15 years younger than her male colleagues. How will she hold her own in a tough environment and still have a life?
- The Head of Finance is promoted to General Manager and now must lead specialists in areas in which she is inexperienced, such as Operations, Marketing, and Sales. How will she lead rather than manage, and make effective decisions through others?
- A Regional Director of Sales always won against his peers in the monthly sales tables. Now he’s promoted to Head of Sales he has to lead his former rivals. How will he earn their loyalty and motivate them?
- An executive turns around a failing division through a tough command and control style. Profitability is back, but remaining employees are shell-shocked. How will he rebuild the team, engage them, and develop them?
