-: Think about it this way, if you are an athlete
and you are striving to be at the top of your game,
how would it be to be an athlete all
by yourself without the ability to have anybody
who has visibility to who you are
and your full potential to raise your game
to your best game?
-: Our coaching is really about helping senior leaders
to show up as their best selves,
deliver in the moments that matter most.
-: So think about yourself and your own situation.
You are a world class leader.
-: It can be pretty darn lonely there when you're making some
of these big transformative decisions
in companies that you know are
going to affect people's lives.
-: That's not only change for the organization,
but it can be a lot of change for you too.
-: You need to show that you are willing to examine
what you do, and change it to be a role model
of change for your team.
-: How would other people see that you showed up different?
They would say, "Huh, she's doing something different.
I've never seen her do that before."
-: Ultimately, coaching is about taking
you to your fullest potential.
-: The coaches work as a team.
-: We try to unlock the solution that lies within you
-: To think through, "How do we get the new processes going?
How do we actually work together as an organization
to drive that change?
How do we unlearn old ways of working
and learn new ways of working?"
And where a coach really is helpful
and valuable, is working side by side with the leader
to help them think through all of that.
-: It's not so much
of a conceptual conversation we're having.
You're able to get much more proximal to me as your coach
because we now have, to a certain extent,
a shared experience.
-: Everything that is said in the coaching environment is
extraordinarily confidential.
We do not break that promise.
-: By incorporating executive coaching into the broader BCG
work that we do,
I think it's a very firm statement about our BCG brand,
which is our commitment to our clients' success.
-: Coaches drive even stronger performance even in world
class athletes or business leaders.
-: And so, we at Boston Consulting Group
bring this unique dimension
which is, we ourselves have been athletes,
if you will, in that analogy.
-: We've walked in those shoes before
and we've lived the speed bumps.
-: Our life experiences are meant to be shared,
and that's what makes us really good coaches is that
all of us are open in sharing our life experiences.
