Why do individuals and organisations use coaches?

People who use coaches tend to be successful, forward thinking people who look for opportunities to be continually growing. Often they realize that there are 1 or 2 areas where they require some assistance to move forward from where they are right now. They recognise, just like sports people, that they do not have all the answers themselves. They know that receving objective feedback is the best way to improve preformance.

A recent survey in the USA by global career services firm Lee Hecht Harrison, indicated that 90% of the companies surveyed are now engaging executive coaches for their staff. 70% of companies used coaches to help develop leadership. 64% used them for skill development. 30% used them for success after recruitment or promotion. 40% used them to retain top people. The reason companies generally chose coaching over training was the emphasis on sustainable performance and behavioural changes that were not evidenced as outcomes of training programs.

What are current Australian trends?

In the Australian Human Resources Institute (AHRI) Survey conducted in 2012 found that:

A little more than two thirds of respondents (67.57%) report that their organisation employs executive coaches
More than seven out of 10 respondents (72.01%) of the sample that have a coaching program report the perception of executive coaching in their organisation is either beneficial or very beneficial.
Support from management is regarded as the key success factor by two thirds of respondents (66.7%).
Just over 40% (41.3%) gave formal measurement and reporting as a key factor in the success of the coaching program.
What is the Return on Investment?

Did you know that to replace a ‘white collar‘ employee in Australia, it will cost your company between 12 and 18 months of their salary in real and hidden costs? For a ‘blue collar‘ employee the cost is 6 to 12 months. Can you afford those costs or the disruption?

As an astute person you know that one poor business decision can cost you you thousands (possibly tens of thousands) of dollars. Yet most business owners do not get the support to ensure good business decisions are made. Think about how you expect your team to make decisions on recruitment, strategy and team selection. You want your team to have a rigorous process and to make the best decisions. High performing teams have a group of people who contribute to the decision making process - players, coaches, officials. When you use this approach in your business you make better decisions more consistently which saves you money and grows your business.

So if keeping your best people, growing your business, and increasing profitability is important to you then coaching is a key part of the solution.
