00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.330
<v ->Think about it this
way, if you are an athlete</v>

2
00:00:03.330 --> 00:00:06.960
and you are striving to be
at the top of your game,

3
00:00:06.960 --> 00:00:09.000
how would it be to be an athlete all

4
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:12.120
by yourself without the
ability to have anybody

5
00:00:12.120 --> 00:00:14.070
who has visibility to who you are

6
00:00:14.070 --> 00:00:16.410
and your full potential to raise your game

7
00:00:16.410 --> 00:00:17.877
to your best game?

8
00:00:19.050 --> 00:00:22.350
<v ->Our coaching is really
about helping senior leaders</v>

9
00:00:22.350 --> 00:00:24.990
to show up as their best selves,

10
00:00:24.990 --> 00:00:27.720
deliver in the moments that matter most.

11
00:00:27.720 --> 00:00:30.090
<v ->So think about yourself
and your own situation.</v>

12
00:00:30.090 --> 00:00:32.100
You are a world class leader.

13
00:00:32.100 --> 00:00:34.500
<v ->It can be pretty darn lonely
there when you're making some</v>

14
00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:36.975
of these big transformative decisions

15
00:00:36.975 --> 00:00:38.816
in companies that you know are

16
00:00:38.816 --> 00:00:41.070
going to affect people's lives.

17
00:00:41.070 --> 00:00:43.620
<v ->That's not only change
for the organization,</v>

18
00:00:43.620 --> 00:00:45.780
but it can be a lot of change for you too.

19
00:00:45.780 --> 00:00:50.555
<v ->You need to show that
you are willing to examine</v>

20
00:00:50.555 --> 00:00:54.150
what you do, and change
it to be a role model

21
00:00:54.150 --> 00:00:55.830
of change for your team.

22
00:00:55.830 --> 00:00:58.830
<v ->How would other people see
that you showed up different?</v>

23
00:00:58.830 --> 00:01:01.470
They would say, "Huh, she's
doing something different.

24
00:01:01.470 --> 00:01:03.210
I've never seen her do that before."

25
00:01:03.210 --> 00:01:04.740
<v ->Ultimately, coaching is about taking</v>

26
00:01:04.740 --> 00:01:06.090
you to your fullest potential.

27
00:01:06.090 --> 00:01:08.310
<v ->The coaches work as a team.</v>

28
00:01:08.310 --> 00:01:11.580
<v ->We try to unlock the
solution that lies within you</v>

29
00:01:11.580 --> 00:01:14.700
<v ->To think through, "How do we
get the new processes going?</v>

30
00:01:14.700 --> 00:01:16.830
How do we actually work
together as an organization

31
00:01:16.830 --> 00:01:18.330
to drive that change?

32
00:01:18.330 --> 00:01:20.910
How do we unlearn old ways of working

33
00:01:20.910 --> 00:01:22.530
and learn new ways of working?"

34
00:01:22.530 --> 00:01:24.360
And where a coach really is helpful

35
00:01:24.360 --> 00:01:27.300
and valuable, is working
side by side with the leader

36
00:01:27.300 --> 00:01:29.520
to help them think through all of that.

37
00:01:29.520 --> 00:01:30.750
<v ->It's not so much</v>

38
00:01:30.750 --> 00:01:33.930
of a conceptual conversation we're having.

39
00:01:33.930 --> 00:01:37.740
You're able to get much more
proximal to me as your coach

40
00:01:37.740 --> 00:01:40.320
because we now have, to a certain extent,

41
00:01:40.320 --> 00:01:41.850
a shared experience.

42
00:01:41.850 --> 00:01:45.900
<v ->Everything that is said in
the coaching environment is</v>

43
00:01:45.900 --> 00:01:47.640
extraordinarily confidential.

44
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.325
We do not break that promise.

45
00:01:49.325 --> 00:01:53.730
<v ->By incorporating executive
coaching into the broader BCG</v>

46
00:01:53.730 --> 00:01:55.530
work that we do,

47
00:01:55.530 --> 00:01:59.610
I think it's a very firm
statement about our BCG brand,

48
00:01:59.610 --> 00:02:04.610
which is our commitment
to our clients' success.

49
00:02:04.620 --> 00:02:08.400
<v ->Coaches drive even stronger
performance even in world</v>

50
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:10.690
class athletes or business
leaders.

51
00:02:10.690 --> 00:02:13.224
<v ->And so, we at Boston
Consulting Group</v>

52
00:02:13.224 --> 00:02:14.789
bring this unique dimension

53
00:02:14.789 --> 00:02:18.185
which is, we ourselves
have been athletes,

54
00:02:18.185 --> 00:02:20.135
if you will, in that analogy.

55
00:02:20.135 --> 00:02:21.990
<v ->We've walked in those shoes before</v>

56
00:02:21.990 --> 00:02:24.570
and we've lived the speed bumps.

57
00:02:24.570 --> 00:02:27.540
<v ->Our life experiences
are meant to be shared,</v>

58
00:02:27.540 --> 00:02:31.710
and that's what makes us
really good coaches is that

59
00:02:31.710 --> 00:02:35.410
all of us are open in sharing
our life experiences.
