What CTO coaching does for you and your team

Proven with senior leaders
Dean Hallett created and taught a leadership program that ran 15 years at 20th Century Fox.
Virtual or in person
Meet by Zoom from anywhere in the US, or in person. Coaching runs in 30+ states.
Your team feels the change
Coaching links your decisions, communication and behavior so the whole team experiences it.
How one-on-one coaching for a CTO works
Coaching starts with detailed information gathering to see the values and behaviors in play. From there you and your coach set goals and build the leadership skills that matter across the organization, including communication, decision making, conflict resolution and emotional intelligence.
The work uses the Discovery Model, which blends behavioral science with experiential learning. You learn to stop automatic reactions, look at the options in front of the business, and choose the best course of action in the moment. The goal is a leader who builds an engaged, aligned team based on transparency, accountability and openness.
- 1 to 2 hours a week of direct coaching, face to face, by phone or by Zoom
- 1 to 2 hours every two weeks of follow-up by email or message
- Weekly goal setting tied to personal development and performance results
- Job shadowing and regular follow-up to review progress and adjust approach
- Coach available when a special opportunity or crisis arises
