Are you really reaching your true potential?
How to start a virtuous loop on business impact and self-development?
Through this podcast Holger describes coaching as a âpath finding exerciseâ certainly not limited to âExecutivesâ.
You will discover Holgerâs innovative approach, the Holben Sprint, a process that avoids long winded assessments, but dives instead right into your âbright spotsâ to maximise your effectiveness.
The Holben Sprint method produces a radical focus on two main areas, ONE selected leadership challenge on the outside and a corresponding self-development opportunity on the inside. Together they form a virtuous loop of business impact and personal growth.
Nigel finds out from Holger what the âLove Zoneâ is and how to bust the barriers, focus on the âbright spotsâ and critical elements to keep the commitment high throughout the process.
This podcast is really insightful, especially if you are someone who is considering coaching, but not yet taken the leap or an senior executive that can see the benefit of this type of support for their leaders and emerging leaders.
