            Our coaching programs typically range from 3 to 12 months, depending on the specific goals and complexity of the leadership challenges being addressed. Executive coaching programs usually involve bi-weekly sessions of 60-90 minutes, while team development programs may include monthly half-day or full-day workshops. We always customize the program duration and intensity based on the client's needs and availability.
We employ a comprehensive evaluation framework that includes both qualitative and quantitative metrics. At the beginning of each coaching engagement, we establish clear, measurable objectives aligned with the client's business goals. Throughout the program, we track progress through self-assessments, 360-degree feedback, and observable behavior changes. We also measure the business impact of the coaching, such as improvements in team performance, employee engagement, or specific business outcomes that were targeted for improvement.
All our coaches hold international coaching certifications (ICF, EMCC, or equivalent) and have a minimum of 10 years of business experience, with many having held senior leadership positions in major corporations. Additionally, our coaches possess advanced degrees in business, psychology, or related fields. We carefully match clients with coaches who have relevant industry experience and the appropriate expertise for their specific development needs. Our coaches regularly participate in professional development and supervision to ensure they maintain the highest standards of coaching practice.
Yes, we offer both in-person and virtual coaching options. Our virtual coaching programs utilize secure video conferencing platforms and interactive digital tools to ensure an engaging and effective coaching experience regardless of location. Many clients choose a blended approach, with some sessions conducted in person and others virtually. We have found that virtual coaching can be equally effective as in-person coaching when structured appropriately, and it offers additional flexibility for busy executives with demanding travel schedules.
Absolute confidentiality is a cornerstone of our coaching practice. We maintain strict confidentiality regarding all information shared during coaching sessions, in accordance with the ethical guidelines of the International Coach Federation. When coaching is sponsored by an organization, we establish clear agreements at the outset regarding what information might be shared with the sponsor (typically limited to progress against agreed objectives, without specific details of discussions). Our coaches adhere to professional ethical standards and will only break confidentiality in exceptional circumstances where required by law or where there is a risk of harm.
We offer coaching services in multiple languages to accommodate our diverse client base. Our primary coaching languages include English, Turkish, Arabic, Russian, and German. For specific language needs not listed here, we can often arrange for a coach with the required language skills through our extended network of certified coaches. This multilingual capability is particularly valuable for multinational organizations and executives working in cross-cultural environments.
