For a very long time, visiting a psychologist or a therapist was seen as a sign of madness, mental weakness, or worse. It took time until people realized that one thing had nothing to do with the other. With executive coaching, it happens something similar. Many people believe that a leader seeking the help of an executive coach is admitting their weakness or that they have problems with their leadership. Nothing can be further from the truth; an executive coach can help a leader improve their leadership even more, among many other things, and that is what we are talking about today. In this special episode, our 50th edition, we dive deep into what it means to receive help from an executive coach and how it can help us upgrade our leadership skills at work and at home. We talk about what we can expect by working with an executive coach, what they are NOT, and the kind of guidance they provide. We also touch on two essential pillars of an executive coach's work, perspective and acceleration. This show is also about some of the questions I would have asked at the beginning of my leadership journey that would have certainly made my life easier. In This Episode, You Will Learn:Things coaches, in general, can help a team with (3:34)How did the different coaches I had in my life help me improve (4:12)The things an executive coach is NOT (5:48)How can executive coaches turn us into better leaders (8:50)Perspective and acceleration.
