This week’s must read

Instead, you’ll need to retrain your thinking to focus on strengths; nonetheless, recognizing strengths is the first step in building on them. Should you consider critical thinking to be the most essential and finest thinking skill?

Thought Leadership
How can you cut through the clutter to locate the most appropriate executive coaching program for you? Here are some things to think about while choosing the finest executive coaching program.
“Everyone wants to change the world, but no one wants to change themselves”, it is commonly claimed. Because of the market’s complexity and uncertainty, which many organizations must struggle with, critical decisions must be taken in real time on a regular basis. This is when coaching abilities come into play.
Most modern businesses recognize the importance of being more agile. Many businesses, however, are hesitant or confused how to make the change to more agility across the board. More than just teaching people, altering organizational structures, and devising the optimal strategy are all part of the agile transformation process. So, how might transformation coaches help people shift their old patterns and mindsets?
We’ve all seen a significant change in the way we live and work recently. However, we will face unpredictable and uncertain periods throughout our life – from new positions to new organizations to even a new profession. So, what are the typical moments of transition that we’ll all experience at some point in our lives? How can coaching help?
