CEO Today - February 2022

EXECUTIVE COACHING www.ceotodaymagazine.com 67 What are your top successes with your clients in 2021? The client I mentioned is a prime example of what performance coaching is about. We worked on his vision, his identity, self-awareness, self-belief – we crafted a roadmap. A few months after starting his coaching journey, he signed a multi-million deal. This is the result of a deep transformation and a willingness to be courageous. I am also coaching 16 top Executives from one of the fastest growing companies in Europe. A truly global assignment across more than 10 countries. This company of 300 employees was created in 2018 and just raised in January 2022 $150m in series D - Taking their valuation to an impressive $1.4bn. In 2021, I was tasked to ensure the Leaders were developing as fast as the company with no burnout. The leaders have recently reported an average performance improvement of more than 15%. They are all stepping up their game without wellbeing concerns and the company looks set to double in 2022. For CEOs who may want to hear more about you, where can they find you? I am London-based and am happy to meet in person or via Zoom for an initial session. Alex can be reached here: alex@alexkergall.com. but results come to those who fully commit to reaching that next level. It is a commitment to being the best, and a powerful tool for any organisation. Return on Investment is something important to you. Why? How do you measure your impact? The reality is that most organisations report a lack of confidence in their ability to measure the business impact of leadership coaching and why I make it a priority in my approach to coaching. There are three ways to measure the impact of coaching: self-assessments, peer assessments and objective results. I personally use self-assessment and objective results. Self-assessment is the most solid basis to deliver transformation. By raising your self-awareness, you become aware of where you want to go and how to get there. The GPI is a key tool for this. Self-belief is the foundation needed to take your game to the next level. Be honest with yourself and start building from there. Objective results are also clear indicators - last month, one of my clients signed a $14m contract. He would have never signed this contract if he did not massively improve his performance. “A key part of my work is to help my clients raise the quality of the questions they asked themselves daily. Quality questions lead to quality decisions and actions.” “Goals are as essential to success as air to live – no one stumbles into success without a goal.”
