Executive Coaching
TheNewtonGroup delivers personalized "one-on-one" coaching and counseling sessions with executives and managers to analyze and provide recommendations on their personal and professional relationships, communication skills and management strategies, and specific leadership techniques. Critical attention is given to developing a leader's ability to formulate, articulate and create "buy-in" to their specific vision—the hallmark of all great leaders.
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is often used during executive coaching engagements to help individuals develop an awareness of their personal styles. This increased awareness helps develop managerial and leadership effectiveness.
TheNewtonGroup often uses the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode (TKI) Instrument to help managers and leaders understand their natural conflict management style. Of the five styles described by the instrument, it is common for most people to over utilize their dominant style and under utilize their less dominant styles. Helping individuals assess when and how to flex their style can be very useful in effective conflict management.
TheNewtonGroup relies heavily on the Birkman Method in its executive coaching. The Birkman Method takes a deep dive across nine components to define an individuals productive usual behaviors, their needs and their unproductive stress behaviors. Another extremely valuable feature of the Birkman Method is running comparative reports between individuals to assess where and when conflicting styles may occur.
