Coaching: methods & influences
The best executives expect nothing but the best from a coach:
The practice of Tony Corballis is informed by contemporary thinking on seeing you as an individual (with a unique learning style and drawing from 'multiple intelligences' and with your learning informed by a thorough needs analyses), and by coaching that embraces competency-based instruction and assessment. He also harnasses the power of exploiting your 'metacognition', largely through critical reflection and deep self-analysis, but also through the core principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in working with your belief systems, and its rather less empirical but surprisingly useful 'cousin' Neuro-Linguistic Programming.
Nearly two decades in training and education (predominantly higher education) has instilled in Tony Corballis a profound understanding of how learning works best.
Hands-on frameworks. He employs brilliantly practical frameworks such as those developed by Dr Peter Fischer on Leadership Transition, by Jo Owen and others on influence, by Stephen Covey in his Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, by the great trainers and authors at The Mind Gym, and by Laura Liswood on diversity in corporations, to name a few. His practice is also instilled with the expertise of great coaches like Ken Seigel, Richard J. Leider, David Allen, Barbara Moses, and Brian Tracey, some of the world's greatest leadership coaches and thought leaders in the field, who he has followed and learned from.
Linguistics and pedagogies. His language and communication strands draw on a blend of disciplines and a range of experts: Tony Lewis (for the predominant Lexical Approach), Steven Pinker and David Crystal (and a number of other linguists, for general expertise), Guy Cook and Michael McCarthy (for particular pedagogies including communicative approach to language development, and other methodologies) and Noam Chomsky (for explorations of the power of language and power through language) along with Halliday (for insights into Systemic Functional Linguistics, which greatly informs the analysis of both spoken and written business texts and other communication).
Organisational leadership. Yet not
just contemporary influence guides his practice. Tony Corballis is informed by
great seminal thinkers through history as well, like Kurt Lewin (on groups in
organisations), Schein, Hosftede and Triandis (among others, on cross culture
and its many facets), and of course everyone from the likes of Confucious and
Gandhi, to the likes of Drucker, Handy, Mintzberg and Fiedler and their ilk, to
the likes of today's legends Jobs and Gates, when it come to inspired leadership.
Tony Corballis: International Executive Coach
Leadership and influence, culture
and change, transition and self-development, language and linguistics, education
and training, workplace psychology, and the principles of communication effectiveness,
communicative symmetry and public communication are all brought together, and
adapted smoothly and flexibly, according to client needs.
Rarely do you find a coach so enthusiastic about his work, so thorough and so broadly experienced to specialise so narrowly in the global metropolis. In recognising the particular difficulties of a narrow market of cross-border executives, Tony Corballis (author of English for Management Studies and EloquentEnglish™ training and workplace/home-based clubs springing up across China, Brazil and Europe) is currently virtually unique and is aiming to become the expert in the niche as it grows.
