Role you're checking

Executive Coach

Service

Executive Coaches work 1:1 with CXOs, board-designated senior leaders, and high-potential directors to accelerate leadership effectiveness, navigate transitions (role changes, IPO, turnarounds), and resolve derailing behaviors surfaced by 360-degree assessments. In India, the market divides into three segments: corporate programs contracted by HR and L&D heads at large enterprises (BCG's leadership practice, McKinsey's Bower Forum, Korn Ferry coaching mandates at Infosys, TCS, HDFC, Reliance), ICF-credentialed independent coaches operating on retainers of ₹25K–75K per hour, and international faculty-backed cohort programs (CCL, IMD, ISB Executive Education). Unlike training or mentoring, executive coaching is a structured, goal-driven engagement — typically 6–12 months — anchored in behavioral diagnostics (Hogan, EQ-i 2.0, MBTI Step II) and terminated by measurable leadership outcomes agreed with the sponsor triad: coach, coachee, and organizational sponsor (usually CHRO or CEO).
