What Is Coaching?

TSNE’s coaching focuses on supporting non-profit leaders to develop adaptive leadership, and to achieve and sustain meaningful change.

Our clients engage in a coaching relationship to achieve new performance levels, tackle new challenges and opportunities, design and implement new ways of doing things, and develop the confidence to build on their achievements.

Our approach is tailored to the specific needs and challenges of each client. Experience tells us that successful change often requires new behaviors and that sustainable change in behavior is difficult.

In concert with our clients we:

• Define what the success of a coaching engagement will look like in measurable terms
• Design benchmarks and indicators so progress can be acknowledged and celebrated
• Determine who else needs to participate and take responsibility for the performance challenge
• Offer tools and strategies for creating energy and forward motion
• Help manage expectations and the pace of change

Benefits for the Client Organization

• Progress on management and leadership effectiveness in the context of real and important work
• Break down complex challenges into achievable outcomes
• A powerful investment in the leadership of the non-profit sector

Hallmarks of Our Approach

• Emphasizes performance as the primary objective of change rather than change for its own sake
• Views executive and team coaching as valuable elements of sustainable organizational change
• Provides both a challenging and supportive environment for reflection and growth
