EXECUTIVE
COACHING
An industry
coming of age
Executive coaching has exploded
in recent years with American companies spending
more than $1 billion annually, according to
Harvard Business Review Article. A recent
survey of 328 companies found that more than half
of the organizations provided coaching for
managers, executives and high potential
employees.
Most executive coaches are from
outside the company and bring an unbiased and
objective view. They provide their clients
with candid and unvarnished assessments, often
based upon information from those who work closely
with the individual, of their weaknesses and
strengths. These assessments are used to
shape a person's interpersonal behaviors and help
mesh more closely with corporate goals and
values.
Coaching programs can make a
significant difference in overall organizational
effectiveness by improving teamwork and ability to
execute strategy. Coaching is particularly
effective when it is focused on driving behavioral
change rather than cultural change and when the
emphasis is upon positive performance outcomes
rather than remedial issues.
We will keep you abreast
of Elizabeth Muellner's status as she strives
to become a Certified Executive Coach.
Elizabeth currently holds her SPHR certification
and will be one of the first in the area with such
a certification!

_______________
MORE THAN A TEMP?
Employers are
beginning to look more internally at
temporary employees when vacancies open up at
their companies. Temporary employees already
know your company, the environment and the
work since they are already on the
inside and their work is already known. According
to American Staffing Association (ASA), as many as
18 percent of temporary jobs annually are
converted to full-time jobs at client companies
and this number is growing. Although the
growth of temporary to full-time has been said to
be not as quick to materialize in the early 21st
century because of the jobs created by the Clinton
years, the staffing industry has been
characterized as a "bright spot" in the employment
market. "Temping" has been known
to be one of the most productive strategies
for finding a full-time
job.
Temporary-to-hire is a popular way
to hire new full-time employees, as well, allowing
employers to evaluate new hires during the
standard 90-day probationary period, while they
are employed by the staffing company. This
evaluation period allows employers to have a
greater success rate of all new hires before
adding them on to your payroll and employee
benefits plans.
Make sure to
look at your temporary pool of candidates when
seeking a full-time hire - they are worth the
consideration! |
