Would You Benefit From Executive Coaching?Executive coaching could be the thing you've been looking for to get over that next hurdle at work. Something seems to be holding you back . Let's identify the challenge and focus on real solutions you can implement. Take the quiz and see how you might benefit from executive coaching.We all have meetings and appointments, and we can usually make it to these engagements on time. Which of these sounds like you?* I have no trouble making it to conference calls and meetings on time, every time. I am typically on-time, but time-management is something I struggle with and sometimes I’m not sure how to best plan my day. I’m just treading water at the moment, I’m on time – usually -, but rarely am I prepared for the meeting, it’s hard to keep everything straight.Which of the following statements best describes how you’re feeling about your career right now?* I am on the fast track to success, have a clear view of where I’m going, and my job is very fulfilling. I’m satisfied with my job, and I have a lot of passion for what I do, but sometimes I feel like I’m missing the mark and with a little guidance I know I can take my career to the next level. I’m feeling really lost in my career and often wonder if I’m even in the right line of work.As the saying goes, there’s no I in team, but it can be easier said than done. How do you approach situations where your thoughts and ideas may not be the best solution or direction?* I have no problem switching gears from my own great ideas to someone else’s even better ideas, and graciously follow the path of what’s better for the big picture in the end I realize I might not have the winning solution, but sometimes it’s hard for me to switch gears from an idea I thought was great. I know my job and my team. People may suggest options, but I’m probably going to do what I think is best in the end.If you learn of a new way to do something, or a new concept for old ideas, what is your approach?* I enjoy learning new things but it should be clearly explained from the get go, especially if it’s a new process I need to roll out to my team. I think I can adapt quickly, but sometimes it’s a struggle to get others to join me I try not to be a nay sayer but if I can’t wrap my head around it, it’s difficult for me to adopt a new process.Perception is something that a lot of executives and managers struggle with. How do you measure up in the perceptions of your staff?* My staff sees me as a leader they can trust. They look to me as a resource. My staff’s perception of me isn’t reality. They sometimes see me as guarded. I need to work on how to better connect with them. We don’t have anything formal set in place for feedback like that. I think my staff knows that I work hard and am a resource for the team.Are you familiar with your strengths and weaknesses?* I know I have strengths and weaknesses, and I realize it’s important to be honest about them in order to be more successful. I think I need help identifying my weak points. I know it’s important, but right now I need to focus on work, rather than look inward to how I’m doing.Imagine this: You’re working with a coach and it isn’t what you expected it would be like. You don’t feel you’re moving in the right direction. What are you going to do?* Talk to the coach about my expectations and needs and give them honest feedback. I’m pretty busy. If it’s not working out, I won’t make the sessions a priority and possibly miss a few. Play along until it’s over and go back to doing things the way I did before.Fill Out The Form To Get Your Personalized ResultsName* First Last Email*
