Due by Day 3. Solution-Focused Coaching. Executive coaches have a range of information and skills from which to draw on to carry out their jobs. Among common skills needed are effective listening, open ended questioning, non-threatening approaches to interacting, and techniques to cushion constructive feedback. While these general skills can be utilized by all Executive Coaches, specific types of executive coaching methods have been developed to address the unique needs of organizations. After completing this week’s reading, address the following questions: What are the tenets of solution-focused coaching? What are the benefits to organizations that employ this approach? Your initial post should be a minimum of 300 words.
Question 6
Coaching Women
According to the United States Census Bureau (2003), women now hold half of the managerial jobs in the United States and they continue to make advancements in this area. This stands in stark contrast with a time when women were rarely seen in leadership roles and the growing prominence of women in leadership positions presents a challenge to organizations that are often not gender neutral. Historically, norms, standards, structures, policies, and expectations were based on the male as the leader, manager, or executive. To deal with this challenge, many organizations have turned to Executive Coaches to train women in leadership or women taking on new leadership roles. After completing the reading assignments, address the following questions: What leadership challenges might be unique to women in management or executive positions? Should Executive Coaches take the gender of the trainee into consideration? Why or why not? Are there specific guidelines that a male Executive Coach should consider when coaching women? Your initial post should be a minimum of 300 words.

Some organizations choose to bring in and train new leaders, while others seek out those with a significant amount of experience.

Specifically, they can receive training to help them understand how to overcome some of today’s complex issues, including the transition to business conducted on a global level. Seasoned executives find themselves facing distinctive challenges, including the belief that their techniques and management methods continue to be contemporary as opposed to outdated. After completing the reading assignments, address the following questions: Can a “one size fits all” approach to executive coaching be effective?
