Why Choose Parachute Executive Coaching?
Our Experience
We are business people. We understand the issues and challenges facing business because we’ve been there. We represent a wide range of industries and functional backgrounds and bring diverse perspectives and the wisdom of corporate, organizational and entrepreneurial experience to our coaching. We match our business experience with coaching experience gained over thousands of hours with hundreds of clients around the world, and we bring the learning gained from every coaching engagement to benefit the next.
Our Expertise
Established over a decade ago, Parachute Executive Coaching has a track record of success in Canada and internationally. Our associates bring strong educational and professional backgrounds to their work as coaches and in addition every associate has completed an accredited coach training program to ensure top level coaching competency.
Our Process
Our success is predicated on having a proven process for implementation of a coaching initiative no matter how large or focused.
- We operate on a frequency model – the more often coach and client meet, the greater the momentum and the more rapid the behaviour change and/or goal accomplishment.
- We collect information. In addition to our own intake process (comprised of quantitative assessments and qualitative feedback solicitation) we examine any other performance and evaluation data available to ensure we have as complete a picture as possible.
- We triangulate the coach/client/organization relationships. We understand that our work with an individual is done in an organizational context and we contract on that basis.
- We measure the effectiveness of our work, in terms relevant to the client and the organization.
- We solicit feedback to ensure we learn and improve along with our clients.
Our Standards
We are members of the International Coach Federation (www.coachfederation.org) and as such we adhere to the Code of Conduct and Statement of Professional Ethics of that organization.
