6 Benefits Of Corporate Coaching

By Scott Van Heurck - 29 Mar, 2021

Have you ever had a coaching relationship? If you have, then you understand better than anyone the benefits of such a relationship. There’s a plethora of benefits associated with coaching and can have a significant impact on an individual’s career. The coaching process plays a vital role in helping develop people from different industries, and could even be helpful in their personal lives. Coaching has been linked with boosting confidence, fostering effective communication, and, more importantly, improving performance.

The benefits of coaching are wide-ranging and even specific to each individual. Here are six powerful benefits that coaching can offer individuals in your company.

1. Helps Define Goals And Act Towards Achieving Them

Coaching presents each individual within your organisation with an opportunity to define their career goals clearly and realistically. With the help of a coach, not only will they set these goals, but they will also actively work towards achieving them. It’s pretty common for goals and objectives to be linked to two aspects of a person’s career: the first is improving skill sets, and the second is the individual’s professionalism.

Luke Mollica of MMNLP believes that having a coach is critical to help a business owner stay on course with their goal-setting and achieving. “It’s easy for everyone to set a goal, but it’s vital that you have someone ensuring you’re on track to reach those goals. You need that motivation and that extra push, which can be quite difficult to do without that person who’s there to keep you in line with your goals.”

A good coaching software allows a person to record their goals and the company to stay up to date with the progress. Each person is given checkpoints by the software to oversee their goal achievements. Their progress is relayed directly to their coach, supervisor, and the admin of the program.

2. Increased Engagement

Many organisations often find out that they have been sitting on untapped potentials due to lack of engagement. Coaching engages all participants with its direct approach, lots of encouragement, and one-on-one feedback. When people are involved in their workplace, they are more likely to contribute more effectively to their team as well as the company as a whole. Engagement through coaching also plays a role in increasing an organisation’s retention rate and productivity hence benefiting both employees and the organisation.

The level of engagement employees reach after coaching can be improved by coaching software. This software can help take engagement to new heights by providing a company with a way to watch over the relationship and spearhead the progress.

3. Provides A Safe Place To Gain Perspective

Regardless of your company’s culture, the chances are that employees won’t share their sensitive issues with their supervisor. A coach offers individuals with the perfect safe space they need to talk about their most profound and most sensitive issues.

Since coaches are third-party participants, they can remain uninvolved and gain perspective while still offering guidance without feeling intimidated by an individual’s position within the organisation. However, this outcome is only possible if there is secure communication between the coach and the person being coached. Coaching software that comes with direct messaging options provides that secure line of communication.

Jay Flood, a Queensland-based celebrant, believes that a coach can act as the perfect sounding board for future advice. “Having a coach really helps me because I can bounce ideas off them. They often tell me not necessarily what I want to hear, but what I need to hear. Coaches often see things from an outside perspective and that’s so critical to have in today’s day and age.”

Using an unmonitored space for development and encouragement is crucial since it paves the way for in-depth learning. And once people are comfortable with their skills, they can start to use them to boost their careers and start to recognise the benefits of their coaching relationship.

4. Deeper Level Of Learning

Corporate coaching not only improves a person’s skills in their workplace but also takes learning to a much deeper level. With coaching, a person can learn a lot about themselves, find out what others think of them, and work on areas of their personality that need improvement.

Also, coaching takes learning beyond understanding and remembering. A person can take what they’ve learned from their coach and apply their newly acquired skills in different situations within the organisation and their safe learning space.

5. Build Personal Awareness

A coach can help an individual to understand themselves better and start recognising their strengths and blind spots. These strengths and weaknesses could be personal or professional. Once an individual is self-aware, then they can begin working with their coach on becoming better versions of themselves.

Jay Flood again touches on the benefits of a corporate coach, highlighting the individual-based nature as a major factor. “Sometimes you can lose sight about what you bring to the table or what you should be bringing to the table. Having a corporate coach to keep a watchful eye over you is vital in helping to improve not only yourself but also your business.”

An excellent way to build self-awareness is through the use of personality assessments. Coaching software can make these assessments easy to administer, record, and interpret.

Through improving personal awareness, a person can convert their weaknesses into their greatest strength. Besides, self-awareness helps boost confidence for people in talent development programs and can also come in handy in future roles.

6. Offers Great Support For Improving Specific Skills

Having support for improving one’s skills can make a world of difference in boosting confidence and increasing productivity. Just knowing that there’s someone who is there specifically to help you with goal achievement is an essential part of encouraging progress.

Since skill-building is often the focus of many coaching relationships, there should be a clear definition of which skills to work on so the coaching process is more efficient. Some of these skills could include delegation, team building, communication, conflict management, and persuasion, and all can be managed with coaching software. Guided support will guarantee the success of the coaching relationship.
