Executive Development: Great Coaching Moments

From great teachers we’re moving to great coaching moments:

A sales training client of mine is a fixed income broker in New York City.

They hire elite salespeople who are quick in their thinking and have strong commercial judgment.

During one training program, a student asked me to resolve a consistent objection he seemed to be getting throughout his selling efforts.

He lamented that often a money manager would say to to him, after his clear description of a specific bond for him to buy, “Let me think about it.” Sound familar to you, too?

Case Study

Steve Giglio Works One-on-one with LexisNexis Executives, Improving Confidence and Leadership

Steve Giglio delivers results through executive developmentThe situation:

LexisNexis CFO Carolyn Ullerick needed a team that exhibited strong leadership, independence and assertiveness. “Overall, I had a capable team. But I needed them to grow to the next level. I knew it could take some time before they would get there, I just didn’t know if they could get there on their own.”

Steve spent several weeks interviewing Ullerick’s team, conducting one-on-one sessions, and videotaping the individuals in different scenarios to determine weak points. He then created individual leadership development plans that would create a shift in how her senior leaders conducted themselves and managed others.

The result:

“Steve has become a true partner to me,” Ullerick says. “He has closed the leadership gaps with each of the executives he has worked with. Steve’s ability to guide people towards self-awareness and then provide them with tools for change has lead to a demonstrable increase in each individual’s ability, enabling me to get the most out of each of them.

Steve’s work has resulted in members of my team being promoted, sought after for new and exciting key roles, and regarded as true high potential employees. They have become the trusted advisors that their current roles demand.  Steve has been equally successful with individuals just starting out as well as seasoned executives. Maybe the best testament to his effectiveness is that individuals who I sponsored to work with Steve in the past are now using him with their own teams!”
