Every leader needs support and managers perform better when they are mentored.
Coaching to Strengths
For Managers
Many department managers within a rural hospital setting arrive in their positions after working their way up through the organization over several years. It’s common to see a manager take on the role after a decade or more “working on the floor”.
Our certified leadership coaches use highly developed and proven tools to help cultivate advanced leadership and communication skills. Coaching is an investment in your managers to help them cultivate high performing teams.
For the CEO
Top athletes rely heavily on their coaches for direction, insight and encouragement. Leading political figures engage strategists and advisors to help prepare the perfect address while scholars gladly confess their reliance on words of wisdom from close mentors. Board members and hospital leaders are at the top level of their organizations and oftentimes need a reliable, knowledgeable source to turn to in times of crisis, change and growth.
Impact! has advised healthcare leaders on the most complex situations and challenging times. From the closing of service lines, employment disputes, relationship development, new service launches, public hearings, replacement facility projects and beyond, we listen and then we help you take the most effective appropriate action.
Our service to our clients is confidential and constant. Because of the nature of our close coaching relationship, we are happy to provide references.
About our Leadership Development Tools:
1) EQI (Emotional Quotient Inventory) measures the skills that leaders need to be effective in their roles. Unlike one’s intelligence quotient (IQ), one’s emotional intelligence can improve, but it is only through a true self-assessment that individuals can become more in tune with their EQ. There are 15 EQ skills (such as problem solving, optimism, interpersonal relationship skills, and emotional self-awareness). After much research, these skills have been determined to be essential for a strong leader to have in order to accomplish goals and obtain the most ideal outcomes in any situation.
2) StrengthsFinder 2.0 is a tool developed with the Gallup organization and identifies and focuses on the participant’s top five strengths. Different than the EQ tool, StrengthsFinder focuses only on the individual’s core strengths and then provides a solid framework for more effective leadership. Understanding and developing strengths will be essential as participants learn more about their emotional intelligence and areas in which improvement is needed or desired.
