Well-proven Tools


Over many years, Bresser Consulting has developed and continuously refined well-proven tools for the successful design, implementation and optimization of coaching programmes in companies. The 7 most important ones are set out in full detail in the publication 'The global business guide for the successful use of coaching in organisations' (by Frank Bresser, Sep 2010) containing also 23 practical company case studies from across the globe. Main developer Frank Bresser received for his work the 'Global HR Excellence Award 2011' at the World HRD Congress 2011.

For illustration purposes, we shortly introduce the first of these 7 tools.

Tool 1: The Coaching Success Factors Framework



This tool gives an overview of the most important aspects to take into account when planning, executing and optimizing coaching initiatives. It covers the 10 key success factors for coaching programmes as well as the three underlying factors:

The 10 Key Success Factors are:

1. Develop an organisation-specific understanding of coaching.
2. Adopt a systematic approach.
3. Choose an adequate level of organisational penetration of coaching.
4. Involve the top.
5. Promote coaching as a positive developmental tool.
6. Create an optimal win-win value for all stakeholders.
7. Achieve full consistency of coaching with business strategy.
8. Ensure complete transparency of the whole coaching concept.
9. Evaluate effectively and carefully.
10. Ensure high integrity and quality at all levels.

The 3 Underlying Factors have impact on the application of all key success factors and thus form some kind of their underlying base:

A. Consider the cultural dimension.
B. See the use of coaching as a continuous learning process.
C. Build coaching programme implementation and improvement intelligence.
