Executive Coaching for Results helps this critical leadership development method come of age.

Executive Coaching for Results includes topics such as: Integrating coaching into your organization s overall leadership development strategy Locating and screening coaches worldwide Developing an internal coaching program Deciding which coaching assessments and instruments are appropriate to your situation Measuring the impact and ROI of coaching Following up after coaching
Throughout, the authors provide numerous examples from major organizations such as Dell, Johnson and Johnson, Intel, and Wal-Mart. Offering practical learning, best practices, and illuminating case studies, this is the first definitive guide to the effective use of executive coaching in the corporate environment.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
