Training Advice
Executive Leadership Coaching: 12 x 1-Hour One-on-One Sessions
A senior leader works on the real decisions, relationships and pressures of their role with a dedicated coach – for long enough that new habits stick.
Senior leaders rarely have a safe, neutral place to think aloud. Decisions carry high stakes, the feedback they hear gets filtered the higher they rise, and the pressure of the role builds quietly. This executive coaching programme gives one leader twelve confidential one-hour sessions with a dedicated coach, spread over six to twelve months – long enough for new behaviour to settle and show up in the leader's team.
The programme has three phases. Sessions 1 to 4 build the foundation: self-awareness, values, a leadership vision and SMART goals tied to the leader's objectives. Sessions 5 to 8 focus on resilience, well-being and adapting to challenge and change. Sessions 9 to 12 turn to relationships, communication and conflict, and end with a plan for sustained growth. Within that structure, each session is anchored to what the leader is dealing with at the time – a restructure, a difficult stakeholder, a new mandate or a step into the executive team.
Typical candidates are newly appointed senior managers, executives in transition, high-potential successors identified through succession planning, and leaders accountable for culture and transformation.

Frequently asked questions
Is the coaching confidential?
Yes. Sessions are confidential between the leader and the coach. If the organisation is paying, agree with us at the start what, if anything, is reported back.
Can sessions be held at our offices or online?
Yes. Sessions can run at your offices anywhere in South Africa, at a BOTI venue, or by video call – and a programme can mix the two.
Can we enrol our whole executive team?
Yes. Each leader has their own twelve one-on-one sessions, scheduled around their diary.
Is it accredited?
No. This is a non-accredited coaching programme and the leader receives a BOTI certificate of attendance.
Are there shorter coaching packages?
Yes. BOTI also offers packages of three and six one-hour sessions. The twelve-session programme gives the most time for new habits to embed and suits leaders in a major transition.
Can you run this course in Johannesburg, Cape Town or Durban?
Yes. We train on site at your offices in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Cape Town and across South Africa, at a BOTI venue in Johannesburg, or live online so a team spread over several offices can attend together.
