Understand The Value Of A Christian Executive Coach

By Lyndon Zerna


Being a leader can be lonely. Leaders assume responsibility for vision, maintaining direction and necessary execution. There is no one who will wake you up and get you motivated each morning. No one to tell you exactly where you need to be. You won't be given any deadlines. When the going gets rough, no one is going to bail you out. A Christian executive coach can help you overcome these and many other challenges and assist you in meeting your goals.

Running an organization is bound to come with challenges. There are ethical dilemmas that you're going to face on a regular basis. Leaders are trapped between their responsibility to others and the possibility of failing. You have to keep pressing on, take plenty of risks and overcome the obstacles that lie in your way, but, you may not always be able to see you path. This path may even be filled with complex questions that lack a "right" answer.

God understands this struggle in our lives. So much so that He instructed us to surround ourselves with wise counsel, for Christian executives, that could be a Christian Executive Coach. The problem is that leaders tend to be pretty good at self-sufficiency. They generally see a road to their desired outcomes and can mobilize the determination and resources to get to it. As a result, the often do not seek out coaching. However, none of us can see our own blind spots effectively.

A good Christian Executive Coach will act as a tremendous mirror for leaders. They will not take over a vision and direction; rather, Christian coaches challenge leaders in the decisions they make to insure that they are in alignment not only with their goals but also with their values.

Moreover, coaches can challenge Christian leaders to move beyond easy choices and simple goals and to push past their objectives and currently capacity to attain larger and more impressive goals and outcomes.

You have access to many different Christian executive coaches. You can connect with them via the web, the phone or through an in-person meeting. It is vital, however, to align yourself with a professional who has a clear understanding of your vision, your goals and your beliefs and who can assist you driving towards these things.
