Executive coaching: international
"I have worked closely in group training, one-to-one coaching and distance mentoring, for seventeen years with international professionals. My approach is fluid, human and natural while remaining challenging and rigorous," says Tony Corballis.
"I am experienced in working with diverse cultural identities from almost all corners of the globe. My expertise lies in injecting frameworks for leadership and influence with the linguistics and para-linguistics of communication effectiveness."
"I have lived and worked in four countries, visited 39 countries,
speak two languages, and base myself in multicultural central London. But my approach
is not just about language and culture." He agrees with writer Yang Sung-Jin
who quotes Lee Chan-Seung, CEO of NeungYule, in saying that content and language
development need to go hand-in-hand. 'The amount of exposure to English is small
for [many international business people], so it's almost impossible to gain competence
if we separate what we do in the workplace and what we learn.' A worker involved
in business management will read MBA journals or relevant business magazines to
get the best information about their area and their sector. This motivation means
a content-based approach is the optimum for gaining higher proficiency and eventually
bilingualism. 'What we really need is not those who are fluent in English only,
but those who specialize in specific content while being able to speak English,'
Lee says. Ambitious professionals don't want English; they want communication
- global communication to succeed. Tony Corballis has a range of proven techniques
and approaches that he brings together to make this happen.
Coaching in Business
According to Professor Stephen Hagen, author and director of
the Mercia Institute of Enterprise in the UK, not addressing language and cultural
difficulties means companies are losing business. Nearly half of British companies
experience obstacles to international trade yet only 11% of them have strategies
to cope. More than 20% recognise that business has been lost due to language and
culture difficulties. Hagen believes, "There is a need for a new 'export culture'
with international communications as its key feature". For international communications,
Tony Corballis is an easily-contactable on-hand language, communication and cross-culture
authority you can trust but who does not need to be in your constant employ.
Depending on your career and personal vision, your dilemma will not be 'can I afford a coach?' but 'for my aspirations, can I afford not to have a coach?'. Coaching is available both in-company or privately, and either one-to-one or as a group.
