Coaching

 

Executive & Professional coaching is available for your organization through UCCS College of Business' Office of Professional & Executive Development. 

 

Coaching

Professional & Executive coaching is equipping business professionals with the tools and knowledge they need to fully develop themselves in order to achieve their professional goals. Whether that is by means of creating awareness, facilitating, learning, or generating new actions and self-accountability. Coaching focuses on improving performance, by developing new sustainable personal attitudes, goals and behaviors.

UCCS Executive Coaching | Timing:

Typically, executive and leadership coaching engagements are between 6–8 months in duration. However, coaching engagements can be from 2–12 months. The coach and the client will discuss needs and goals, and the coach will recommend a number of sessions and/or a duration of time to reach goals and monitor results.

The duration and number of sessions is ongoing, meaning that the client can request additional coaching sessions on an as-needed basis.
UCCS Executive Coaching | Contract & terms:

Since coaching engagements are on-demand and can be requested on an as-needed basis, the contract for coaching engagements will reflect a time-frame for services.


Sessions will be billed at an hourly rate, and invoices will be sent to the client on a monthly basis for sessions completed.
