Coaching As A Service Offering

Professional Coaching > From You > To Your Customers

By partnering with TurnKey, you don’t need to be an expert in professional coaching — we are, and you don’t need to invest in the systems, processes, and personnel for managing a global offering—we have already.

You already have the trust and relationship with your corporate customers. And, you already know, most corporations are streamlining their vendor base and looking for high quality partners across a broad spectrum of services.

HR outsourcing firms, executive development firms, consultants, and other business service providers are expanding the services they offer to their corporate clients. At the same time, coaching is becoming more sophisticated and requires a higher degree of specialization and resource management. By partnering with TurnKey, firms can leverage our expertise and coach team to effortlessly increase revenue.  We have the team of coaches, the infrastructure, program management, quality control, and expertise to be your ideal partner.

Corporate Coaching Programs are an exciting NEW source of revenue for HR outsourcing, consulting, and other business service firms.

The most surprising fact is that firms offering training and development programs have generally failed to provide systematic coaching for the participants. Coaching services are rarely offered because of the complexity and cost of recruiting and screening qualified contract coaches, managing a highly individualized matching process, and managing the multifaceted features of a comprehensive corporate coaching program.

However, research has solidly confirmed that skills learned in training classes are substantially lost without follow-up coaching to reinforce learning.

Your clients may be losing 87% of the benefits from training.

Xerox Corporation carried out several studies on coaching. They determined that in the absence of follow-up coaching to their training classes, 87% of the skills change brought about by the program was lost. That’s 87 cents in the skills dollar. However good your skills training in the classroom, unless it’s followed up on the job, most of its effectiveness is lost without follow-up coaching. Source: Business Wire, July 30, 2001

Significant advantages to outsourcing coaching

• Quick implementation

Our systems allow us to manage coaching contracts that are competitively priced and easily customized for each corporate client. We also have extensive learning and development resources that can be offered. There are a variety of ways to structure a program.  Our objective is to custom-design each program and tailor each team of executive coaches to the exact needs and mission of each client.

Executive Coaching Program Management

1. TurnKey takes on the responsibilities and accountability for managing the coaching program in its entirety in support of the client’s internal HR staff or executive development firm. We assign a dedicated Program Manager, a single point of contact, who coordinates all activities with the company, provides seamless and regular communication and ensures timely coordination of all related activities.

2. Distribution and management of Coach Preference Surveys for each new coachee.

3. Selection and screening of potential coaches for effective matching process with coachee candidates.

4. Regular communication with coachees about the elements of their coaching program and how to maximize this opportunity. We work with our client’s to establish a direct and open line of communication with each coachee, independent of their coach, to answer questions and troubleshoot issues in a timely manner. By building parallel relationships with each coachee, we facilitate better buy-in and ultimately deliver better results.

5. Special-needs problem solving. In some cases, issues may arise either at the start of an engagement or will be identified during the coaching process that require greater attention, a more tailored or intensive approach, and generally more management. We aim to address these issues quickly and efficiently.

6. Company-specific training and initiation of the chosen coaching team: We conduct coach-team meetings throughout the engagement to ensure the highest level of coaching excellence, effective coordination, and program follow-through including targeted coach training:

• tutorials on how to review and leverage specific company 360 feedback reports
• overview of corporate executive competencies and leadership practices
• company background, key personnel, and mission
• expectations for the coaching program and how the coaching fits within the broader spectrum of leadership development and succession planning
• what internal resources are available, etc.

7. Independent quality control monitoring of coaching using regular communication, sophisticated systems and well documented processes.

8. Assurance and oversight of coachee satisfaction—including changing the coach if needed.

9. Collection of coachee and coach progress reports; consolidation and preparation of monthly participation and engagement reporting to the company.

10. Management and administration of company procurement requirements, such as vendor master account set-up and maintenance, detailed Statements of Work as needed (e.g. tailored program addendums), and vendor compliance requests.

11. General and professional liability insurance and corporate indemnification as requested.

12. Recruiting, training, and management of a global pool of coaches to satisfy a broad array of coachee preferences.

13. Maintenance of a comprehensive Coaching Control Panel for assignments and coordination.

14. Marketing materials and internal communication support for company-specific program(s)

15. Optional in-person and virtual (teleseminars, webinars) training programs for targeted topics chosen by the company.

16. Optional team coaching, group coaching, shadow-coaching, or peer-to-peer facilitated shared-intelligence sessions
