Executive Coaching
The Executive Coaching Dan Coughlin provides is for key executives to enhance their performance toward improving key desired business outcomes. In this regard, he works with executives on their leadership, communication, priority management, team building, decision-making, talent management, strategy setting, and problem solving skills. In these in-depth Executive Coaching assignments, Coughlin observes the executive in a variety of settings on site in the executive's normal day-to-day work flow. He also gathers a wide variety of 360 Degree Feedback about the executive's effectiveness or lack of effectiveness. Dan Coughlin works with strong executive performers who want to take their impact to the next level. He does not work with executives who are failing and who are looking for an outside person to work with as a last ditch effort to save their jobs. Over the past 11 years, Coughlin has coached more than 125 executives in over 30 industries and has invested more than 3,000 hours on site observing those executives in a wide variety of settings as they dealt with a diverse array of business issues.
Executive Mentoring
In this private variation of Executive Coaching, Dan Coughlin provides all of his feedback to the executive over the phone, through e-mail, and in person at off site locations. In this manner, Coughlin provides guidance to the executive, but he is never present at the organization nor does he speak with anyone else at the company. The benefit of Executive Mentoring is that the executive receives timely input from a seasoned executive coach without any of his or her peers or direct reports knowing about the feedback he or she is receiving. For some executives, this approach is greatly preferred to the on-site, observational Executive Coaching that Dan Coughlin provides.

"I have had the pleasure of working with Dan Coughlin for 4 years. He has a unique ability to provide both individual and group development. As my Business Coach he has developed tools that I use which challenge my thought process and enhance the effectiveness of my decisions. While his perspective is wide ranging, he also is very effective with specific situations. He customizes processes based on your specific needs and then stays focused on using the process effectively to help you achieve the desired result. He does a thorough job of understanding his audience when working with a group. The amount of prework and preparation including getting to know each player has been very effective. His style of coaching leaves the group feeling that they solved the issue and truly own the process. Dan's ability to partner with an organization through focusing on opportunity is one of his many strengths that help you get to the result."
