|
| Effective Implementation |
|
| The implementation of OD initiatives often get stalled
because we don’t equip leaders with the skills necessary
to bring about effective change - usually some kind of
cultural change. The direction that organisations usually
move to with respect to culture is that of a “coaching
culture”. It may not be called “a coaching culture” but
it will be the same thing when you look at it closely. |
|
 |
|
|
| Leadership Purpose is at the heart of any successful
change process. Leadership Purpose is both collective
and individual. At the organisational level we are talking
about values and behaviours that are aligned to a vision.
This is the engine of change providing the momentum and
engagement. Purpose is also the corner stone of the Professional
Leadership Coaching Model [download the Purpose of Purpose]. |
|
| DraperCo has a successful track record of creating and
supporting coaching cultures inside organisations. We
have helped to build some of the largest internal coaching
pools in the world through a variety of initiatives. The
figure below shows the steps involved in the successful
implementation of cultural change. |
|
| Roadmap to Creating a Coaching Culture |
|
|
|
| The cultural change roadmap has many components. DraperCo
partners with organisations at all levels to fill the
gaps where appropriate. We have many products and services
that support organisations on their journey from strategy
development and leadership programs through to measuring
return on investment (ROI). In some cases we partner in many levels of the process
and in others we support the organisation in just one
area. |
|
| Another way of looking at the how coaching
can be layered in an organisation is to look at the pyramid
model below. This model is based on need for a coaching
mix: |
|
|
|
| • External coaches: professional coaches with
business and leadership experience combined with objectivity
and greater independence from the organisation; typically
a few people coaching senior leaders |
|
| • Internal coaching community: professionally
trained and qualified people delivering coaching to staff
usually outside their own team. |
|
| • The coach approach: greater numbers of leaders
and managers using coaching skills to develop and support
their own people to be successful. For example in performance
reviews, team-building and project management situations. |
|
The roadmap and the pyramid models have
been successfully used to support the implementation
of
- cultural change
- retention and attractive
- knowledge retention
- mentor programs
- learning organisations
- Hi-Po programs
- high performance teams
- internal coaching programs
