As senior executives are being put under ever more pressure and scrutiny by investors, regulators and their own staff, businesses need to find an effective way to meet the learning and development needs of their senior people—making sure that they are prepared with the skills required to meet the challenges of today’s environment. According to industry research, coaching programs deliver, on average, a return on investment of over five times the initial investment in the coaching assignment.
