Coaching has always been an integral part of who we are. In fact, we are so committed to coaching as a critical part of leadership that we train executives to become coaches. Leadership is a learnable practice, and leaders have a responsibility to develop others. Certain principles guide the practice of successful coaching:

• Personal and organizational changes are the responsibility of the executive being coached

• A true understanding of self and others is foundational for change and transformation

• Change and transformation follow insights and action and requires reinforcement

• The coach has guiding questions, the client has the best answers

Consulting, too, exhibits guiding and teaching mechanisms. But while coaching guides toward solutions, consulting says “Clients- this way.” Great consulting is about providing objective unencumbered thinking and often, innovative solutions. (If approaches were obvious, you would not need a consultant unless you were looking for cover or reassurance.) Our consulting process is an application of Ramerman Leadership Group’s outside expertise and thinking, creativity, and strategic skills, drawing upon rich stores of management and life experience.
