CFO's - Are they coachable ?

The future depends on what you do today - Mahatma Gandhi

To be successful CFO's need to develop four fundamental leader skills.

These include Self Awareness, Learning Agility, Communication and Influence. One way to truly understand your development opportunities is to undertake a program of assessment and coaching. Coaching doesn't work for everyone so if you are considering coaching to accelerate your career and performance then take 5 minutes to answer these questions.

A great candidate for coaching is someone that is willing:

• To be open-minded
• To be a learner, someone who is curious about themselves and others
• To explore and, if necessary, challenge their beliefs and attitudes even if they are deeply held
• To examine their values and choices even when its difficult for them
• To acknowledge any fears that may be holding them back
• To put an end to self-limiting and self-sabotaging behaviours
• To persevere during difficult times
• To try out new behaviours
• To insist on what they want from the coaching process
• To accept responsibility for the outcome of coaching

Why CFO's Should Invest in Coaching:

• Better and accelerated learning
• Development of critical thinking skills
• Improved team leadership performance
• Sustainable organisational change
• Increases your self-awareness
