We work at all levels within an organization

Executive coaching for senior leaders

During the 70s and 80s when business coaching was in its infancy, the first individuals to receive coaching were executives. This is often still the case. Companies invest in coaching for their executives because they are the highest paid individuals in the company and the ones responsible for creating change within the organization.

Business coaching for middle managers

Business coaching for middle managers is commonly referred to as leadership coaching because the intention of the coaching may be to improve the middle manager’s ability to lead or to prepare the middle manager for an upcoming ascent to a more senior role.

Business coaching for front-line staff

Business coaching for front-line staff is sometimes referred to as performance coaching, or as team coaching if delivered as part of a group initiative.

Our experience has taught us that coaching for smaller businesses is in different in scale and complexity to larger companies. Regardless of size, all companies have a financial motive for coaching. Small business owners often have less resources and fewer employees with specialized skill sets and benefit from the experience and relationships that Elton Consulting LLC can provide.
