FEATURED CASE STUDY
Nurturing a Coaching Culture in Mississauga
A longstanding partnership with Axiom Leadership has fostered a high performing coaching culture in Mississauga, leading a valued client from a traditional command and control leadership style to a collaborative, performance-driven, and coaching-oriented approach. Rather than seeking a ‘silver bullet’, this company’s focus was on cultivating cultural shifts, starting with receptive business units and expanding naturally from there, creating a powerful ‘pull’ rather than a corporate ‘push’ approach to cultural change.
Fostering Coaching Excellence
In a sales-oriented environment with a strong focus on performance, the challenge was to elevate the sales team’s effectiveness. Many leaders embraced the coaching philosophy and sought expert guidance. Axiom introduced a coaching training platform exclusively designed for select sales managers. These leaders were equipped with foundational coaching skills including using powerful questions, improving active listening and empathy, and creating a platform for collective action.
Rather than dictating directives, these managers engaged in one-on-one collaboration with their reps, helping them recognize their strengths and navigate their unique challenges, often expressed as ‘self-limiting narratives’. Within a year, the teams led by this cohort of leaders were achieving a remarkable 120% increase in performance compared to other sales teams.
Cultivating a Culture of Coaching
As news of the coach-approach’s positive impact spread, other leaders expressed interest. The desire to integrate coaching into their leadership toolkit quickly extended beyond sales leaders to include all organizational functions. Across a five-year period, leaders from all corners of the national organization underwent an immersive six-month coaching program. Gradually, internal leaders evolved into Coach-Leaders for new cohorts, further reinforcing the organization’s capacity for growth. The newcomers didn’t just receive wisdom from external experts at Axiom; they were also supported by their personal Coaches within the organization, engaging in practical exercises with peers through practice triads.
Transformational Focus and Legacy
With unwavering dedication and a concentrated effort, the organization’s leadership culture underwent a significant metamorphosis. This deliberate journey gave rise to a fresh performance culture, where the coach-approach not only elevated outcomes but also fostered a sense of shared purpose throughout the Mississauga based organization.
