A proven methodology you can count on

CLIR Coaching uses a proven coaching methodology that pushes past traditional approaches to change – and opens new opportunities for executives to achieve their full leadership potential and advance your company’s success.  This foundational viewpoint calls for a new way of coaching—one based on results.  It demands that we look beyond the individual leader to the entire organization, coaching within an organizational context and inspiring change that better equips your executives to meet your specific business strategy.  In response, we use a tested coaching methodology that fully supports your organizational focus.  It enables our coaches to get to know your company, incorporate input from a variety of sources, and sets developmental goals that are in alignment with your company’s culture and strategies.

Context Orientation

Our comprehensive coaching process goes well beyond one-on-one dialogue with your executives. We take a holistic look at your organization focusing on the change needed to makes your leaders more effective within your organization. We begin with an extensive orientation of your company, exploring your talent-management strategies, culture, mission, vision and core values. We gain insight into the underlying dynamics of your organization and unpack your business strategy equipping us to set goals for team and individual change that work within your organizational context.

Stakeholder Involvement

We fully engage your human resources professionals and immediate leaders throughout the coaching program.  We seek their input on the executive’s performance and work closely with them to prepare him or her for the coaching process. Once coaching is underway, we hold regular meetings with associates to glean their perceptions of the executive’s progress and to provide improvement updates – within the confines of client confidentiality.

Data Foundation

We live in an information rich environment.  As such, decision-makers need data to make effective decisions.  So do we. Our methodology relies heavily on data from multiple sources. We gather in-depth information about the company and the executive(s) engaged in coaching from interviews, assessments and other sources and examine it in search of actionable opportunities for change that are aligned with your company’s strategy.  And because your leaders work with data every day, it can make it easier for them to see themselves in a new and different way, leading to changes in behavior that will have the most significant impact on their performance.

Program for Change

Once your executive has made many high-impact changes, we equip them with an ongoing support program.  This program includes an action plan that is shared with the supervisor which is used as a conduit for constructive conversation between leader and supervisor.  We also provide extensive follow-up for 12 months after the assignment ends to ensure sustained and continued progress.  For many leaders, our program’s end brings new beginnings in personal satisfaction and performance – and can build on the positive changes in your organization.

Standing Behind Our Coaches

CLIR Coaching has full confidence in the power of our coaches.  We also believe in depth of expertise to ensure maximum opportunity for our client’s success.  Coach and manager or coach and team meet monthly, or as needed, to ensure objectivity and breadth of expertise.  As importantly, a firm leader from our management team oversees and assists on every coaching engagement to ensure you receive the best experience possible.

How we help you

We have three ways we can work with you and your team to build your leadership capabilities and organizational effectiveness:

FOR INDIVIDUAL LEADERS

• Executive Coaching

Each offering is designed to build the leader capabilities you and your team need to succeed in today’s volatile world.

The process to get ahead is simple

At CLIR, we want to help you and your team build the leadership capabilities you need as quickly as possible. To ensure success, we have a three-step process for every engagement:

Insight Conversation

We begin with a call to discuss what you and/or your team are trying to achieve along with your own assessment of what you think is holding you back.

We provide early insights at this point and this short conversation enables us to start to understand where the challenges are.  We discuss what coaching or development plan would look like.

Leader Assessment

We will conduct an individual leader and/or team assessment along with an organizational context review to pinpoint where specific performance challenges and opportunities are.

Once the analysis and findings are summarized, we prepare a high-impact coaching course that we facilitate at your site and remotely with your team.

Coaching Conversations & Workshops

To make rapid improvements, we will engage in focused coaching conversations as well as on-site workshops designed to quickly build skills. Over time, we measure re-measure the individual leader and team progress toward making measurable improvements.

Improve your leadership effectiveness and deliver results as quickly as possible.
