Wickland Westcott

The Coaching Surgery

Today's economic climate means most businesses have been forced to review leadership development spend. Whilst developing and retaining top talent is more critical than ever, organisations are looking for creative and cost effective ways of doing this. One-to-One Coaching is widely recognised as one of the most effective tools in developing leadership capability and helping organisations build competitive advantage. However, the required investment can be prohibitive; this typically means access to coaching is restricted to very small numbers of senior employees. Many high potentials and middle management, as well as Executives lack the support they need to realise their full potential. At what cost for the future?

This challenge has led Wickland Westcott to develop the Coaching Surgery. A new product aimed at offering our clients the flexibility to provide the dedicated coaching support to senior line management, normally reserved for the Executive team.

• Aimed at key groups of individuals who would benefit from one-to-one developmental support
• One-to-one executive coaching for 3 delegates for the same level of investment as a single full coaching programme
• Affordable, commercial and best practice support over a year long period
• Bespoke tailored development, opposed to a 'one-size-fits-all' programme
• Delivered by executive calibre coaches, maximising the opportunity to learn and effect

"My business had a big problem with succession planning. There was a large gap in experience between director level and the level below. We needed to develop key high potential individuals to ensure that gap was filled. We considered a generic leadership programme but decided the needs were diverse and ideally wanted to take a tailored individual approach within an affordable budget. Coaching Surgeries by Wickland Westcott was the perfect solution. Ten individuals were identified to undertake the Coaching Surgery, including myself. I can't recommend it highly enough; the feedback from all participants was superb. The support provided made a real impact on day to day business and equipped us all for the more senior roles we secured at a later date - absolutely brilliant!"
