Unlocking the Potential of New Leaders

Navigating a new leadership role can be challenging, but it doesn't have to be. Transition coaches provide invaluable support to help leaders succeed in their first 18 months.

A successful transition is critical for a leader's success. Research indicates that up to 40% of new executives fail to thrive in their initial 18-month tenure. A skilled transition coach can make all the difference in achieving a smooth and effective leadership handover.

The role of a transition coach is to create a secure environment where leaders can plan, generate ideas, and manage concerns. This enables them to build confidence and make informed decisions.

When selecting a transition coach, it is essential to choose someone who understands the context and industry segment. The coach and leader must work together to set clear expectations and maintain open communication.

Benefits of a strong transition coaching experience include:

• Connecting the leader's prior experience with the requirements of the new position
• Setting clear expectations
• Recognizing potential obstacles
• Creating a plan for achieving success
