Your Executive Coach is your guide in what is essentially a journey of self-discovery. He will work with you to find the enlightenment that will help inform and direct your professional trek forward. If need be, your Coach will push you to the wall compelling you to confront your ghosts, to recognize your weaknesses for what they are -- obstacles to your own professional growth and your company‘s drive towards its vision.

At Banyan Way we believe that, to be an effective guide in this journey, an Executive Coach must possess the following attributes:

• Actual real-world experience in leading and managing organizations with varying levels of complexity and through the highest levels of the corporate hierarchy. The Coach should have gained a strong understanding of varied corporate cultures; the development and operationalization of corporate strategies; of management and team structures and their work, social, and political dynamics. With this, the Coach can truly empathize with the Executive: talk the same language, understand the organizational and operational challenges and issues that need to be resolved, and know the pressure and stress that the Executive faces.
