Executive coaching is primarily concerned with confidential one-to-one discussions between the coach and the executive. It is aimed at performance improvement. Primary needs are diagnosed and agreed upon, a "developmental-action plan" is drawn up, the skill base of the executive is broadened by coaching,and then the new skill sets are tested in the workplace under the guidance of the coach. Sometimes,these needs involve team coaching,but individual coaching is the normal starting point. The coach needs to guide the executive outside his or her comfort zone in order to improve performance.
A coaching assignment normally focuses on two or three developmental needs of the individual, and lasts for 6 to 12 months. However,it sometimes involves multiple assignments aimed at bringing about cultural change in an organization. For example,a new chief executive may want to change the culture of his organization. He could then hire a coach, and brief him or her to change the mindset of his direct subordinates on a one-to-one basis.
Compared with traditional management training, which is typically related to broadbased organizational change,sometimes of a technical nature,executive coaching is targeted to individual and small-group change. The primary focus of coaching is often behavioural and leadership change,and is rarely of a technical nature. The difference between coaching and training is that coaching is one-to-one,highly confidential and over 6-12 months,whereas training is typically of a short-term,group-work-shop nature.
Referring to the key ingredients for enhanced performance and team success, business coaching has a lot to learn from sports.
According to sports coaches,a coach is a catalyst for change,and is not paid to preserve the status quo,but to lift people out of their comfort zone,so that they grow and develop. The coach must stay in touch with the state of the art and extract from it what is relevant.
All sports coaches believe passionately in the power of the team to lift performance not by just a little,but by 100%. Considerable energy is devoted to defining goals,roles,a code of conduct and to fostering group dynamics in order to optimize team productivity.
Both success and failure are learning opportunities,and there is a severity in their cold-eyed, weekly analysis,which business has yet to develop. Top athletes scrutinize both success and failure with their coach to extract lessons from them,but they are never distracted from longer-term goals.
To be a champion athlete means developing an elitist attitude—not involving arrogance, but rather an unceasing desire to learn and improve. They never accept second best,but always strive for what has not yet been achieved.
There must be a sport/life balance,so that athletes are not obsessed by their goals,and thus lack a sense of perspective to cope with inevitable failure or occasional success,or the ability to recharge their batteries outside the sporting arena. [br] All of the following can be learnt from sports by executive coaching EXCEPT that______.
选项
A、excellent person needs a strong desire to achieve the top
B、failure is a good experience from which we can extract lessons
C、success comes from changes
D、successful people should learn how to balance career and life
答案
C
解析
推理题。由文中倒数第二段第二句They never accept second best,but always strive for what hasnot yet been achieved.可知,[A]“一个优秀的人对最高目标要有强烈的渴望”符合文意,故排除;由倒数第三段第一句中的Both success and failure are learning opportunities和该段第二句中的Topathletes scrutinize both success and failure with their coach to extract lessons from them可推知,[B]“失败也是一种很好的经历,我们可以从中吸取教训”正确,故排除;再由最后一段中的There must be asport/life balance,so that athletes are not obsessed by their goals可知,[D]“成功人士需要学会如何平衡职业和生活”正确,故排除。[C]“成功来自于改变”在本文中并未提及,故选[C]。
