Emerging
leaders are new supervisors, management
trainees, and project team leaders. They
are emerging because it is often
their first brush at getting results through
others. Many of the skills that will be
required of them are completely new. They
need to have opportunities to learn new
skills, practise those skills, make mistakes,
and receive feedback and coaching.
Our
program for Emerging Leaders provides the
new leader with coaching and support while
they learn many new leadership behaviours.
As a result their Developmental Plan needs
to focus on:
- Planning
and thinking from a long-term perspective
- Gaining
comfort leading others
- Getting
results through others
- Increasing
exposure to senior management
- Establishing
goals for career and current job
A
JLS Coach provides support to the Emerging
Leader by holding them accountable to the
goals that they set for their development,
and by de-briefing some of the new leadership
experiences that they encounter. Some of
the greatest leaders have asked themselves
at this stage: Do I want to be a leader?
Having an experienced leadership coach who
will listen, and help them deal with these
issues in a sensitive way, is paramount
to their future growth.
