Client Challenge
SHAPE CORP. was looking for ways to renew confidence in management and leadership abilities. They visioned a culture that is always exploring what they are capable of. While facing new challenges they were focused on finding new methods for achieving them.
Coaching Solution
After investing in training and individual coaching for many of their senior executives, those individuals opted to hire a Meta Performance Institute™ certified coach. This program consisted of over 30 hours of training along with mentorship from Meta Performance Institute. These individuals invested hours into growing their own ability to coach and transform culture, through Meta Performance Institute certified coaches. The key focus areas of our work were to:
- Ensure the coaching techniques felt natural to those being trained to coach, and that there was evidence the language was embedding into their day to day approach.
- Increase the team’s ability to point to a hard ROI based on achievement of outcomes
- Ensure the team would rate the impact of the culture being created as a 5 out of 5
