COACHING FUTURE TECH FOUNDERS & THEIR TEAMS...
Since I've coached with founders in the last 15 years + I see this time & time again...
The investment drive is into the tech, the growth and yes the team, but not from a human-centred and caring approach, more as an additional 'resource' to aid faster growth.
Fast fixes don't generally work and can actually cause a deficit in the mid to longer term.
So this article, on the latest analysis of the FTSE 100 & S&P 100 reports, confirms what I see daily—companies are investing more heavily in tech but failing to prioritise the people who power it. AI mentions have doubled, yet skills development remains an afterthought.
SO, HOW DOES FOUNDER AND TEAM COACHING HELP?
- Future proofing the team and their talents by really assessing what is working, where strengths, weaknesses and the all too often blindsides are.
- Embedding coaching skills and a 'coaching as a leadership' style culture enables team members to gain more focus, autonomy and flex to creatively come up with solutions in the moment vs' a culture of top down control.
- Founders find time to do less, but better and team are more motivated when given more freedom to excel and grow.
- Overall, better communication in the team, with leads, customers, stakeholders and partners because a culture of open questioning is underpinning daily and strategic operations. The ROI is much clearer to count and tweak accordingly.
I can help introduce coaching into scaling Founder led teams to improve innovation and the execution without losing the personal touch in the team.
Creating real synergy between team talent and tech capabilities gives more sustained and lasting results, regardless of the highs and lows in business.
Let's talk about what coaching can do to address the substantial skills gap amid rise in technology priorities on the rise in our sectors.
