CoachCertified™ System:

“developing  leadership to create productivity through innovation via distinctive execution”

Every leader of every team or organization dreams of creating a purposeful, highly competent organization of self-directed team members that regularly achieves extraordinary results.

What if we could guarantee that a system of coaching would:

  • Increase productivity overnight,

  • Align your organization around strategic goals,

  • Improve execution of important initiatives

…leaving behind a smoothly running performance leadership infrastructure?

Folded Corner: Lack of clarity on the reasons for success. Great CEOs hold their associates accountable for knowing what activities cause results. CEOs focus on what to do, and let associates take care of the “how.” Then, on a regular basis, associates monitor the activities that lead to success. For a sales manager this might mean counting and publicly posting the number of cold calls and referrals every week, in addition to the actual sales results. The difference between champions and good performers isn’t terribly great sometimes, but champions win consistently because they understand what causes a win. Finally, successful CEOs foster (and insist on) the use of reliable, continuously improving, and innovative methods for getting work done before they let their associates take care of the “how.” Why CEOs Fail by TEC Chair Glenn Waring  

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The CoachCertified™ System (CCS) is designed as a leadership development system with performance-based costs (you pay only when you get performance), monitored metrics and defined results. This system combines training, coaching, consulting, mentoring and facilitation to identify, implement, monitor and evaluate specific targeted results—iteration over iteration—improving each outcome with the experience of the prior iteration.

The Key Components of CCS……

Here is an outline the key elements of the CoachCertified™ Approach.

  • Define the specific objective
  • Determine what skills are involved and decide to improve what you have or get some help
  • Make everything time-bound
  • Know what the components (metrics) for success are
  • Adapt the tools you use based on business reality
  • Regularly measure progress
  • Give and get feedback
  • Stop at specific points and review how you're doing
  • Identify some areas where opportunity exists
  • Execute flawlessly
  • Strive for distinctive results
  • Keep an eye on the scoreboard, adding resources or deploying resources where needed.

While these may sound like things everyone does, they are actually rare in terms of a disciplined system of execution. “Sources in the US actually reported that execution is the #1 failure of business strategy—NOT the strategy itself.

"The best way to keep good intentions from dying is to execute them.” unknown

Let's face it, nobody likes or will continue to do things that are a lot of work, day in and day out. Yet, what makes a difference most of the time, is the ability to execute day in and day out in face of business reality.

The CoachCertified™ System is designed to align with the present management and leadership system and augment execution of that system through an attention to performance management. In our experience regular, structured, monitored, and timed developmental events are an essential contribution to improving productivity through increased efficiency.

Yet, that's not enough. You can't manage what you can't measure. It's just that simple. Any time you can introduce specific measurable targets that are aligned with what's important and focus attention and resources on those issues consistently, good things usually happen, even when they are unexpected or unintended outcomes.

Typically current management and leadership are in over their heads. With the current demands on managers and leaders, productivity suffers as does execution. If you're going to support the mission of management and leadership with resources, those resources have to be in the form of a systemized approach to resolving execution efficiency.

Imagine if we could get people to spend 10%--just 10% more of their time on what's important? Manager and leaders are often so overloaded, they fail to see the forest for the trees.

Why CSS is more efficient, effective and sustainable compared to other Leadership Performance Systems……

CCS provides objective, systemized support in the form of a structured approach:

  • Identifying specific ‘important’ results,
  • Targeting those results,
  • Aligning resources with those results, and
  • Following up consistently on measuring the return on resources used to create those results—to create very specific increases in productivity.
  • Is strategically controlled, yet tactically flexible.

Productivity may be the only sustainable competitive advantage in a hyper-competitive market.

The other key in CCS is innovation. Innovation has been shown to be a relatively simple process that can be duplicated through access to frequent communication between stakeholders, clients and leadership. Yet, why isn't there more innovation? Is it because people are too busy to innovate? In some ways, busyness has replaced business.

Why CSS is DIFFERENT than other Leadership Performance Systems…….

CoachCertified™ is a business system.

Here's why.

  • It systematically invites, builds and enforces where necessary improvements in productivity and innovation via a process brought into and aligned with your current management and leadership system.
  • It effectively increases distinctive execution through focused attention to what's important.

Can we ever pay too much attention to what really matters?

Here's an outline of the CoachCertified™ System:

  1. Your request for proposal is a trigger for us to work together to create a Scope of Results Card, called a ScoreCard.
  1. In the formation of the ScoreCard, trained coaches work with your management and leadership to identify what really matters; what it is now, what you want it to be, what's possible; and in light of all of that data and information, we propose a series of options. This is accomplished through our proprietary Integrated Strategic Intention System (ISIS).
  1. Options often come in the way of further assessment designed to produce missing data and information that may be blocking increases in productivity and innovation—such as hard and soft skill deficits.
  1. Once we agree on what really matters and confirm it really matters, we propose an intervention, or what we call the implementation of a CoachCertified™ System.
  1. The CCS we propose will often have several phases, or iterations, each one being designed to start from where you are, moving to where you want to be in a measurable process, which can be managed.
  1. Phase 1 or the first iteration is usually heavily weighted on our CoachCertified Coaches™. These Coaches are trained to manage a facilitated process, which involves triangulated coaching linked to management and leadership initiatives in the business.
  1. Phase 1 will often include some training, or skills development identified as limiting productivity in the Scope of Results or ScoreCard.
  1. Phase 1 may also include some mentoring, training or advising from specific experts who may fill in missing competencies.
  1. In large part, the CCS Coach either administers the software or works with a project administrator to track all the events, metrics, goals and progress of the constituency involved with the CCS.
  1. The CCS Coach assures alignment between the CCS and business requirements at key points of contact during the program of 13 weeks.

At 13 weeks, an evaluation occurs and the system may be adapted, halted or improved for the next "round" of 13 weeks.

Typically in the second iteration (13 wks), the CCS Coach begins to offload the administration to the participants in the system. In some ways, it can be compared to giving them the opportunity to start doing some driving on their own, or in some cases, they may be driving already and we can expand the range of their activities in the system.

Depending on the complexity noted in the ScoreCard, the proposed intervention may last several "rounds" until the business has fully adopted the model and can operate on its own, with only key milestones being evaluated by the outsourced team.

CCS is designed to be an outsourced system that assimilates or is diffused into the management and leadership system over time. How much time the system phases run is usually dictated by how complex the system processes are currently, how complex they need to become, and the cultural aspects that may support or limit the adoption of the system introduced by the CoachCertified™ Approach.

Why CSS is SPECIAL…………...

The CCS is a structured, path-driven process that is woven together by training, consulting, coaching and facilitation as it relates to the business management and leadership system. While each individual CCS Professional, guide or coach employed by the system may have their own unique styles, the CCS adheres to strict guidelines that guide the implementation, design, application and evaluation of resources, metrics, and results across the system, so consistency and quality are enhanced in the administration of the system. Quality is enhanced through the CCS Approach™.

The CCS remains strategically controlled and tactically flexible throughout the alignment with the business. The CCS has strict goals of efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability overlaid with strict controls, metrics and results that are driven through what really matters, yet offers flexibility in how those goals are accomplished.

What’s The ROI……………….

CCS is a hybrid Coaching system for organizations motivated by specific business goals/initiatives. It is a substantiated fact that  business coaching anchored in business reality has a Dramatic Impact on Executive Behavior, Organizational Development.

Executive Coaching based in business reality delivers a Return on Investment (ROI) of nearly six times the initial cost of coaching, according to a recent Manchester Consulting Survey of over 100 senior executives who have participated in coaching programs. Seventy percent of the executives who participated in the survey valued the ROI  on their coaching at a minimum of $100,000 or more. Nearly 30% put the ROI  between $500,000 and $ 1 million.

Returns go up when groups of executives are focused on the distinctive execution of a key economic value-added initiative!

Strategically controlled, tactically-flexible; bankable, results-driven approaches led by CoachCertified™ Professionals who focus on facilitating success through efficient, effective and sustainable processes that can be executed and institutionalized in organizations by people.

"For the past five weeks my partner and I have participated in the CoachCertified program with Mike Jay. Before beginning the program our business was slow, but we thought that we were doing what needed to be done to generate new business. How wrong we were! After five weeks of paying attention to our company through CoachCertified, we have increased our business with existing clients and have five new potential clients. We have begun “attracting” clients. We are so enthusiastic about CoachCertified that our salesman and broker are now on the program and I intend to use it with clients. I highly recommend CoachCertified to anyone who wants to energize and increase his/her business…….the system is powerful!"

In the CCS, each participant experiences the power of the CoachCertified System™ as well as being trained in administering the system to become qualified and certified as a licensed consultant, coach or guide.

Working through the CCS has moved me forward quite a bit in my business. I made great leaps I had been putting off in the business processes and I gained several huge steps in internal developmental learning for myself.

Starting off with a list of strategies that were broken into categories, goal accomplishments, then specific steps with timelines proved to be very motivating. I had detailed clarity on what my expectations of myself were each week. There was plenty of room for changes: additions and subtractions of tasks so I could evaluate what was effective for me as I went.

I wanted to meet the goals so I could see the words “accomplished” or “done” next to the tasks, rather than “not yet started” or “behind”.

The weekly check-ins were very beneficial for my type of personality. I like to check off accomplishments, I like to show others that I have done what I said I will do, I love to move forward and feel the success of flying over a hurdle. CCS has the structure in place for reporting back.

What I found out during the process was that if I sent in my reports in a timely way and took most of the steps I had committed to for the week, I could use my time with the coach for actual coaching instead of reporting back. This was a huge benefit and motivator to doing what I had committed to doing.

This program is all about me having a system which is self motivating and self rewarding to move my success forward.
