Benefits of Coaching

Coaching is particularly valuable to executives who are:

  • Seeking to master a new skill or to overcome identified challenges at work
  • Moving from managing to leading and need help adjusting to the demands of their new role
  • Interested in exploring new goals in their lives or careers

If you are a Brookings alumnus: Coaching can help you make the most of the time and money you have already invested in Executive Education at Brookings, helping you refine the skills you have acquired through our leadership development curriculum. Build a personal development plan and benefit from one-on-one support as you put new ideas into practice. Take advantage of personal coaching sessions in your office, at Brookings, or on the phone, and translate the knowledge you have gained at Brookings into real action in your professional life.

If you are new to Brookings: Even if you have never attended a Brookings executive education course, you can invigorate your career development by signing up to work with a Brookings leadership coach. Choose a member of our trained staff to support you in your professional development and reap the benefits of exploring your potential without even leaving your office—our coaches are happy to come to you or to coach you by phone (once a working relationship has been established).

What is Coaching?

Coaching is a future-focused discipline that gives you the support you need to explore new career and development options and build the self-awareness you'll require to be most effective at work. Your coach is trained to ask questions and make observations to prompt you to examine yourself, your work environment, and your options with fresh eyes. He or she will support you as you change and grow. Your coach will work with you on a personalized coaching plan and recommend any additional resources after your free sample session.

Coaching is completely confidential. Organizations funding coaching for their executives will not have access to any of the information shared in coaching sessions, except at the request of the coachee. Coaching is a development tool. It often prompts new directions and big changes, but should not be used where an outcome is already pre-determined, either by the coachee or an organization.
