Coaching and mentoring is a performance tool that can improve and optimize the function of your team, department and entire organization and complement your overall employee development strategy.

After completing training, CEG’s consultants can continue to work with your organization to guide, counsel, and put newly-learned skills into practice. This critical service reinforces learning through real-world application and ensures knowledge is immediately put into practice. Here at CEG we know that there can be several barriers to implementation — and we’re here to help every step of the way.

We offer both one-one coaching and group coaching. An individual one-on-one coach will provide a personalized coaching experience, designed to focus on your specific strengths and weaknesses. One that will help develop a plan to help you succeed and thrive, in your career and your personal life.

Group coaching offers a range of benefits to organizational teams that can be just as impactful as one-on-one coaching, but at a lower per-head cost. It also comes with additional team building and networking benefits.

One-One Coaching

We could all benefit from having a trusted advisor by our side. Having a one-on-one coaching relationship can provide you with exactly that by:

• Developing an individual, one-on-one coaching experience tailored to your needs.
• Focusing on accelerated, skills-based solutions that gets results and improves performance.
• Motivating you to stay on track through the challenging times and making accountability an everyday activity.
• Creating a safe, non-judgmental learning space to confront issues like burnout, leadership challenges and high-speed change.
• Improving your ability to communicate effectively, bringing about meaningful, personal, and organizational change.

Each coaching engagement includes:

• Specific and measurable outcomes agreed upon by all stakeholders
• Customized plan, including what’s needed to sustain success
• Access to the coach between coaching sessions
• Relevant homework between sessions
• Additional learning resources as identified

Each coaching engagement is unique in goals, cadence, duration, and components such as assessments, and independent learning assignments. However, the framework below takes into account expectation and standards for all engagements:

• Access to the coach — support will be available in between coaching sessions in the form of brief phone calls, emails, and referral to resources. A 24 hour response is guaranteed, typically it’s faster.
• Adherence to International Coaching Standards — All information discussed between Coach and Coachee is confidential.
• Client-Coach relationship — Having a coach is a shared responsibility. It is imperative for the Coachee to voice his/her needs. The Coach needs to know what is needed and wanted, what is working and not working in the coaching partnership. The Coach commits to be unconditionally constructive and to challenge the Coachee towards desired results.

Group Coaching

Most organizational projects and initiatives either succeed or fail based on the ability of individuals to work cohesively and productively with colleagues in teams. Group coaching is designed to zero-in on challenges and barriers blocking team effectiveness, helping team members develop skills and pathways through to outstanding performance. It does this by:

• Creating a shared learning experience, with a support network of colleagues that can provide feedback and reflection.
• Bringing together diverse groups of individuals to focus on developing fresh ideas, approaches and solutions encouraging shared accountability.
• Using the best of social and experiential learning where individuals learn from each other, tackling real-world situations and accelerating knowledge and skill growth.
• Offering a cost-effective and scalable solution where one coach reaches more individuals simultaneously.

CEG offers Group Coaching Solutions covering a variety of topic from burnout, presentation skills, feedback, change and more. Below is an overview of two of our group coaching offerings.

Leading Others through Change

Decades of change management research supports the fact that when it comes to workplace change, people managers are impacted the most. They first have to find their own way through the change as an employee, and then they need to help motivate, listen to, and guide the various individuals they lead through it. CEG’s Leading Others through Change program is targeted specifically to managers; it is comprised of facilitated small group workshops that provide the opportunity to learn and then practice critical relational skills in a relational setting. Participants learn from the facilitator as well as others in their cohort, engaging in targeted skill practice and the sharing of stories, challenges, and successes.

Presenting with Confidence and Clarity

In today’s attention economy, being able to present information clearly and succinctly in a way that captures and sustains interest is critical to success in any role. While great presenters make their craft look effortless, in reality their prowess is the result of deliberate practice. Projecting confidence, commanding attention, and engaging an audience are skills that can be — and need to be — learned, polished, and refined. Whether you are conducting a meeting, reporting progress, or delivering a speech, if you don’t engage your audience and convince them to willingly give you their attention, effective communication is not possible. Your ideas will fall flat, and your attempts to influence will fail. But if you DO engage your audience and move them to action, you have the ability to shape the future.

These highly interactive facilitated coaching sessions are structured in a way that offers participants targeted practice with real-time feedback. Each session focuses on a discrete skill set that is a critical facet of successful presenting.

TARGET AUDIENCE: This facilitated session is designed for anyone who wants to improve their ability to present their ideas in a way that moves others to action.

DURATION: Three 90-minute virtual sessions

• Session 1: The Art and Science of Storytelling or Data Design and Visualization
