It's no secret that executive coaching is now well and truly accepted as part of a robust people and culture strategy. Senior Leaders are coached and given an elevated space to learn more about themselves. They develop skills and techniques and are encouraged to lead with self-awareness and 'by example' to help build organisational leadership.
However, what happens if this doesn't work? There are now so many variables to consider, especially after this 'new world reality' in the last few years. What if culture dwindles and employee retention drops? Do we go back to the executive coaching drawing board and review the plan? Was it because a small minority resisted the program, or perhaps there were insufficient resources to support the rollout? Something designed as a proactive program can suddenly become a reactive fix and a headache to resolve. What if there was another way?
Imagine this. A world where all your workforce is coached for total organisational transformation. Where everyone benefits, not just the leadership team. A program where everyone in the organisation can come together simultaneously. Learning from a strategically planned blueprint for change and moving collectively forward as a group. Fantasy? Too hard? Too expensive? No, this alternative universe is here now. And it's called scalable coaching.
Scalable coaching experiences are learning programs where everyone in the organisation can move forward on the same transformative journey. And all at the same time. How? The secret is a mixture of robust systems that anyone can easily access, combined with a deep understanding of the organisation's road map - the highway it's currently on and the best road to take to get where it needs to go.
And the stops along the way? Experiences. Everyone in the organisation has a learning experience which means that your total workforce capacity is travelling on the same road, on the same bus, at the same time. Therefore, significant transformation really can and does occur. Scalable coaching is not a set-and-forget coaching technology solution. It's an active, on-scale learning experience aligned to the individual, the team and organisational outcomes. It's a dynamic program informed by insights to iterate and adapt the experience for current challenges continually.
Sounds good, right? But it must be expensive. Or resource heavy. And we all know it's a battle to retain talent in this climate, let alone find some to roll out a new learning program.
The excellent news? It's not. Scalable coaching is designed for agility and is built to withstand internal talent movements and budget changes. Many large organisations are moving from 'leaders only' coaching to scalable experiences. The scalable experience revolution is here.
Like throwing a pebble into a still pond, the ripples produced can reach out and embrace the whole body of water. Here is a new way of looking at traditional executive coaching, 'trickle-out learning'. It will be interesting to see what these early adopter organisations accomplish with this innovative step to change and move learning and development back onto solid ground.
