Making the Business Case for Leadership Coaching

Companies around the world rely on leadership coaching for talent development. These organizations report a range of benefits from coaching including an increase in employee retention, customer satisfaction, productivity, employee engagement, and leadership bench strength. Research shows that over 70 percent of organizations offer leadership coaching - and another 22 percent would like to offer coaching, but lack of budget and resources to manage these programs creates a barrier.  Even among those companies investing in coaching, budget remains the biggest challenge, followed by the lack of ability to measure a return on investment. While talent development professionals understand the immense value of coaching, it can be difficult to secure buy-in from senior leaders without a clear business case and a guaranteed return on investment. Organizations that can measure the business impact are much more likely to increase their investment in coaching, and expand coaching efforts to more leaders. Fortunately, coaching management platforms are making it easier to measure the business impact, both at the individual and organizational level, and deliver a better, more impactful, coaching experience.
