4. Focused on Behavior Change

5. Accountability and Engagement
SCC fosters a high level of accountability. Through regular follow-ups and stakeholder involvement, leaders remain engaged and committed to their development journey, ensuring sustained progress and continuous improvement.
6. Customizable to Organizational Needs
Stakeholder Centered Coaching is not a one-size-fits-all solution. It is highly adaptable and can be tailored to meet the unique needs and challenges of your organization. Whether enhancing specific leadership skills or addressing broader leadership issues, SCC provides a customized pathway to success.
Step 1: Choose a Leadership Goal, then Stakeholders
The process begins with the leader identifying a specific leadership behavior to improve. This goal should be relevant to their role and significantly impact their effectiveness. The leader's manager is involved to ensure alignment with organizational objectives. Relevant stakeholders, who regularly interact with the leader and are affected by the behavior, are then identified.
Step 2: Enroll Stakeholders as Key to the Process
Stakeholders are informed about their role in the coaching process and are asked to provide ongoing feedback and feedforward. They offer essential insights and ultimately validate the leader's behavioral change.
Step 3: Plan Using Stakeholder Input
The leader, with the coach’s help, develops an Action Plan based on stakeholder suggestions. This plan is shared with stakeholders to solicit active support and additional feedback. The leader also creates a confidential daily checklist to maintain focus on behavior change.
Step 4: Follow-up with Stakeholders
The leader engages in regular follow-up with each stakeholder, typically on a monthly basis, to seek feedback on progress and suggestions for the upcoming month. This input is discussed with the coach to refine the Action Plan.
Step 5: Measure Stakeholder Perception of Improvement
Progress is measured through Mini-Surveys where stakeholders anonymously rate the leader's improvement in the targeted behavior. These surveys are conducted at the midpoint and end of the coaching engagement to validate progress and ensure that stakeholders recognize the change.
