Why Is Executive Coaching Important?
Executive coaching is important because CEOs and other executives often fail. According to research, there were 1,640 CEO changes in 2019 alone. Strikingly, the government/nonprofit sector led all industries with a CEO turnover total of 339. These numbers point to a disconnect between leadership, organizational culture, and the realities or conducting business in today’s world.
Having to replace an executive can cost millions of dollars in lost revenue, severance packages, and search fees.
The hiring of an executive represents a significant investment for an organization.
By the time the executive has been hired, the organization has likely spent thousands to millions of dollars investing in their development.
Executive coaching can be an insurance policy on a new, high-profile hire or an existing leader who could use help expanding and enhancing their skill set to meet new challenges and demands.
