“Even the sharpest knife cannot sharpen itself.”
VIP coaching conversations by All about Talent offer senior managers a sounding board, tranquility and space away from the hectic of the workplace. They aim to develop new insights and be inspired to refine ideas. If requested VIP sessions can also provide a mirror, support and neutral feedback on own leadership behavior.
ORGANISATION TRANSITIONS REQUIRE A LOT FROM LEADERS
Many organisations and companies go through continuous transition processes which demand a lot from employees and managers. Line- and HR directors, have an important role to play. Naturally they aim to achieve the company targets, to support their colleagues and to guide their employees. To inspire them, enable them to grow in their profession, have them cooperate successfully etc. Such transitions often also involve ‘building mutual confidence and trust’. As the leaders themselves are part of the larger whole, they find themselves in the midst of the force fields. By no means an easy task.
THE MORE SENIOR THE ROLE YOU HAVE...
Although the majority of managers have their internal network contacts well organized, many feel an increasing need to discuss their questions, reservations or ‘just – the state of affairs’ with a neutral external professional.

OUR VIP CONVERSATIONS HELP YOU TO...
HOW WILL THIS WORK FOR YOU?
Your priorities, cases and actual needs will be the departing point of our working sessions. You decide the agenda; I will be your sparring partner challenging and supporting you with 'appreciative inquiry' for clarification, food for thought and 'building blocks’ which support your ‘themes’.
My role as coach is not to tell you what to do or provide ready-made recipies. I help you to get insight in your 'thinking and doing', your patterns in what you choose to do or not do, and obtain clarity in your issues.
Conversations/working sessions of 1.5 up to 2 hours usually work best to benefit most from your precious time and maximize result.
You decide how you want to pace the sessions, which frequency suits you best. Some want a short interval start; meeting with a monthly frequency and later on every five or six weeks. Others prefer meeting with a fixed frequency throughout; every six weeks from the start.
All about Talent offers blended coaching programmes of six or seven Talent VIP sessions, with a maximum lead time of resp. seven or eight months. Given that planning is a challenge for senior management agenda’s, our cancellation conditions are modest.
