Considering Your Investment Let's look at turnover statistics, not to mention, the collapsing workforce due to the onset of the Baby Boomer retirement age upon us. Imagine if a company could lower turnover (of those that are truly valued) by 1-2%. Bradford Smart in his book "Top Grading" states that turning over good people can cost an organization up to 24 times their salary! His math is compelling. Even if you put a more modest figure of 4 times a person's salary as the cost to the organization imagine what dollars could be realized if a company reduces "good" turnover by 1-2%. Executive Coaching can and should do that.

Carnelian Coaching Turns Managers into Leaders

There is a HUGE difference between Leaders and Managers. The difference is that Leaders have mastered the soft/people skills necessary to inspire people to work up to their full potential. Managers often have solid technical skills but don't inspire others to work toward a collective goal. A symptom of a typical manager is that their people are often in need of a "task with consequences" approach to their work vs. leaders who inspire self motivation for the good of the cause.
Here's the reality… Most managers in corporate America are good technicians at what they do. They typically have deficiencies in the "soft skills" area.

Carnelian Coaching can help an organization or individual executive design and implement a program towards human excellence that will inspire managers to become leaders. The distinction in coaching is that:

• Executive Coaching helps create stronger and more productive people that are more valuable to an organization.
• It is directly tied to personal improvement and increased productivity that in turn pays off handsomely for the organization.
• Executive Coaching does not "fix" people. It is rare that coaching can be deployed to "fix" those that deem to be in need of a quick change by their manager.
• Executive Coaching can provide dramatic short term impact for companies. But the reality is that it will take from 6-12 months of quality Coaching to make sustainable changes. Those that tell you that it can be done quicker are not well informed.
• Executive Coaching is about individual planning, goal setting, and achievement. It's also about personal discovery and enlightenment. It is about realizing one's full potential, which in turn, benefits the organization.
