GLOBAL EXECUTIVE COACH OF THE YEAR NAVID NAZEMIAN CEO of Navid Nazemian Executive Coaching FZCO Navid, can you expand on your coaching style and what it was that drew you to transition coaching? It’s hard to describe one’s own style. But suppose I were to read through the many executive client testimonials that I have received over the years. In that case, they describe my coaching style as hands-on and collaborative, whereby I am an active thinking partner, linking business strategy to people development while focusing on maximizing leadership impact to facilitate successful career transitions. My methodology emphasizes overcoming obstacles quickly and fostering high-performing teams, drawing from my own extensive experience in executive leadership positions across various industries. In your experience, when should a CEO or organization know they need to bring in an executive coach to support them, and is there a point when it could be too late? Based on my own experience as an executive and a coach who’s worked with hundreds of executives, there are several key signs that indicate when a CEO or organization should consider bringing in an executive coach: • Feeling stuck or stagnant in their career progression to break into, or advance within the C-Suite into more complex roles • Struggling to effectively lead other executives or manage interpersonal dynamics effectively • Seeking guidance on navigating organizational politics or dealing with complex multi-stakeholder situations • Desiring to enhance specific leadership skills or behaviors I’d also like to emphasize that executive coaching is most effective when senior leaders proactively seek support rather than waiting until problems become severe and insurmountable. I firmly believe that executive coaching should be seen as a targeted instrument for continuous leadership improvement and organization growth, not merely a solution for leadership crisis management.
