| Video-based Feedback/Coaching
Overview EDG has achieved dramatic results using video-based feedback and coaching to improve executives’ communication. Highly successful executives are almost always excellent communicators. Deficient performers often are not. Smart plans and innovative ideas are routinely negated by deficient or disrespectful communication. To make matters worse, executives whose communication style chronically undermines their agendas are often unaware of their behavior and its impact. And colleagues, wary of defensiveness, hurt feelings or retribution, are frequently reluctant to provide honest feedback. Video Feedback Videotaped feedback provides executives with a unique learning experience. For the first time, executives get to see themselves as others do. The stunning realization of their deficits overcomes any denial. Strengths and areas for improvement are identified unequivocally. The awareness obtained through video feedback primes individuals for change. Video-based Coaching Subsequent video-based coaching enables executives to build new skills at a highly accelerated pace. Here’s how it works. The executive practices new skills in real life simulations. Executive and coach then review, critique, and refine the performance. At the session’s conclusion, the executive commits to targeted application of new skills to the workplace. The sessions continue until desired proficiency has been demonstrated and validated. |
