1:1 Executive Coaching — One person’s real challenge, over three months
When coaching helps
It fits when there is no fixed content to teach, and the person has to find the answers in the work they are responsible for right now.
- First year as an executive
What worked as a team leader stops working at the division level. This is the point where you must let go of doing the work yourself and shift to delivering results through people.
- When taking over a new organization
When you take over an unfamiliar organization through a reorganization, acquisition, or new business, your judgment in the first 90 days shapes the following year. Together, we decide who to meet first and what to change first.
- After multi-rater feedback results are in
If it ends with a results report, nothing changes. From the results, you choose two or three behaviors to change and actually work on them for three months.
- When you take on a change initiative such as AI transformation
Executives who own company-wide initiatives have many decisions to make alone. Each session checks how you are putting the principles set in the executive AI talk into practice in your own organization.
6 sessions — Diagnosis · Coaching · Report
Each session lasts 2 hours, held every 2–3 weeks. In every session we set what you will actually try before the next one, and the next session starts by reviewing those results.
- 1 sessionDiagnosticDefining your current position and coaching goalsWe read the pre-survey and stakeholder interview results (3–5 people: manager, peers, team members) together, and set two or three behaviors to change within three months as goals. The goals are agreed in a three-way meeting that includes the HR manager.What you keep — a one-page coaching goal agreement

What is reported to the company
Coaching only works when executives can speak candidly. From the start, we put in the contract what the company needs to know and what stays within the coaching.
Fees
The fee per session is calculated using the same base rate as the training quote calculator (the same basis as a 2-hour talk). Terms such as additional sessions and travel expenses are agreed in the consultation and written into the contract.

Together with the Executive AI Lecture
A talk reaches many people at once. Coaching works with one person, for three months.
In the AI Special Lecture for Executives, the leadership team sets the rules together: what is allowed, what is prohibited, the budget, and the success metrics. Coaching then picks up from there, helping each executive put those principles into practice in their own organization. You are welcome to ask about coaching when you request a lecture proposal.
