Ep. 7: Internal or External Coaches?




Zenger Folkman Leadership Podcast show

Summary: Jack Zenger and Joe Folkman answer the following questions in this episode:    <br> <br> With the dizzying speed of change, how can you prepare employees for redundancies without inadvertently implying that the employment relationship is uncertain , unreliable and short term? <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Is Coaching more effective if the coach is from the same industry as the coachee? (I.E. Are internal coaches better than external coaches?) <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> How can we maintain a leadership development strategy in an organization, once we have started? <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> We are facing quite a challenge in justifying the cost of doing a leadership program in our organization, in India. Being able to link it, directly, with increase in profits should have a very favorable impact on our efforts. What do you think are some of the best measures of the effectiveness of a development program? <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Does an organization’s culture have any affect on the sustainability of a leadership development program? <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Could you please outline some clear, practical methods for collecting ROI on the business impact of attending the Extraordinary Leader program, including the area of driving company profits. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> In your view, what part does organizational culture and values play in increasing performance and profits; and what part does effective leadership play in fostering values in action and a high performance work culture? <br> <br> <br> We’d love for you to <br> experience our award-winning leadership workshops in a city near you.  We <br> also invite you to join us for our monthly webinars.
