NorthStone® Coaching Services

The Value of Coaching
Coaching is here to stay. Once regarded as another management fad or, worse, as the last resort for someone in professional trouble, coaching has become a top tool for executive development and is linked directly to improved results:
  • Investment in executive coaching yields 5.7X return on investment, as measured by productivity, quality, executive turnover, customer service and shareholder value (study by Manchester Inc.)
  • Companies that spend more on coaching and workplace learning have 57% higher net sales per employee and 37% higher growth profits per employee; and large companies that maximize their employee productivity are growing their earnings dramatically without increasing the size of their workforces. (research by Executive Development Associates and McKinsey & Company)
  • Training alone resulted in an average productivity increase of 22%; training with the addition of coaching resulted in an 88% increase in productivity. (study by International Personnel Management Association)

NorthStone® Executive Coaching
Through our Executive Coaching service, we work with you via regular, directed conversations to identify and solve critical issues and to improve your leadership abilities. Executive Coaching is conducted usually over a six-month period and includes a NorthStone® Executive 360-Degree Assessment. This qualitative assessment of your current perceived strengths and gaps not only assists our work together by identifying patterns in your leadership attributes but allows us to tailor our approach to your specific circumstances.

NorthStone® Transition Coaching
Transitions such as changes in leadership and M&A integration create complex challenges for you and your organization. NorthStone® Transition Coaching is designed to help guide you through this process. Similar to Executive Coaching, Transition Coaching is individual coaching for a leader who is either new to a role or facing a major organizational transformation.

NorthStone® Strategy Coaching
The likelihood of successful change is enhanced when you select the correct framework and use it deftly. Whether you are revising an existing business process or are thoughtfully engaged in a major strategic transformation, NorthStone® Strategy Coaching is designed to provide you with both expert advice on which frameworks to consider and practical guidance on how to use them most effectively as the work unfolds.

NorthStone® Team Coaching
The goal of NorthStone® Team Coaching is to identify and instill key leadership abilities throughout members of your management team, enabling them to become more effective leaders individually while increasing the performance of the entire team. Our Team Coaching service is built on the team's work with current business issues and problems and includes full-team and small-group coaching sessions as appropriate.

NorthStone® Strategic Leadership Forum
The NorthStone® Strategic Leadership Forum is a comprehensive leadership training program that combines Team Coaching with leadership seminars delivered on-site. NorthStoneŽ SLF provides managers across your organization with a structured yet customized framework in which to learn key leadership abilities, share experiences, and strengthen communication among different functional areas. The NorthStone® Strategic Leadership Forum is a five-month program for eight to twelve participants.

NorthStone® Coaching Boot Camp
The NorthStone Coaching Boot Camp is a hands-on executive seminar that develops more effective coaches inside your organization. The two-day seminar and follow-up sessions are customized to each client's needs and are delivered on-site. The Boot Camp uses active discussion, case studies and small-group work to introduce participants to coaching's best practices.
