5. Why coaching…
Because it works and we have the statistics to prove it.*
We know that the right coaching:
Is a world class solution for developing leaders and leadership
Achieves lasting change in behaviour, relationships or skill
Provides powerful, flexible and personalised development
Drives change both for the individual and the organisation
Accelerates progress and improves results
In our own research we reviewed over 200 assignments delivered by Coachmatch over a 2 year period and found that over 96% of evaluations identified specific improved
performance or business outcomes such as those above. But don’t just take our word for it - many others agree. Alongside a myriad of intangible benefits such as improved
retention, engagement, communication and leadership, studies which have attempted to calculate an ROI figure achieve impressive results. Even assuming large margins for
error, the case is clear, with ROI figures of up to 689% (Joyce, 2004), 529% (MetrixGlobal LLC, 2001), and over 500% (Manchester Review, 2001).

price, so you can be sure that you are maximising your investment.

9. How we support you…
Partnership, Integrity and Independence
Unlike most coaching consultancies we are independent of the coaches we work with. We are in business
to select the right coaches for each client, not to “sell” one particular coach, or one of a small pool of “associates”.
This means we can operate in true partnership with our clients and with total integrity: Our focus is to ensure our
clients are working with the right coaches matched to their culture, strategy and leaders’ development needs.
It also means that we can and do search the full global marketplace to achieve this if we need to.
Confidence in quality and value
We support some of the world’s most respected organisations to select and manage their coaches.
We’ve developed our quality assurance approach with them, so it’s robust, but also practical and tried and tested.
Coach rates are benchmarked against the marketplace, so you can buy with complete confidence.
Our client’s coaching panels presently include over 100 of the world’s leading professional executive coaches who
regularly achieve exceptional results. We know they do, because we’ve seen them do it. If they didn’t achieve
exceptional results, they wouldn’t be working with us any more.
Comprehensive support
Whether your organisation sponsors one or one hundred Coachmatch assignments our team of specialists will
support you to match, manage and evaluate in line with industry best practice.
Further, our coaching management system provides sophisticated statistics and reporting on the performance of
your coaching, which we can benchmark against comparable organisations. We also report on the organisational
development and learning themes that coaches encounter which offers an invaluable strategic insight.
