Top 3 Lessons Shared By A Christian Executive Coach

By Bertulda Zerna


One advantage a Christian Executive Coach has is that they work with multiple clients. This gives them the ability to create "collective wisdom" as they work with different leaders and executives across industries and business models. There are 3 core things I have learned throughout my time spent as a Christian Executive Coach.

First, it can be very lonely to hold a leadership position. All of the executives that I've worked with have talked extensively about the struggle of being at the very top. There are pressures that these individuals face both inside and outside of their organizations. They feel as though they are surrounded by people who want something.

It is difficult for employees to fully understand the type of stress and burden that leaders tend to carry concerning those that they must lead. Leaders often feel understood while simultaneously doing everything that they possibly can to ensure that all needs are being met.

Secondly, many leaders wonder whether or not they are truly competent. Whilst leaders exude direction, discernment and self-confidence. They are always wondering whether or not what they are working on will succeed or fail. Many leaders and executives I have coached sit back and wonder if others can see through the mask they are wearing.

Last, visionaries and leaders are never able to find an end. The executives that I coach are constantly setting and pursuing new goals as soon as they have accomplished their old ones. Leaders never have the chance to feel true contentment. Another iteration lies ahead and their are always new milestones and new accomplishments to make. Leaders are guaranteed to lead, this is simply what they know how to do.

A major benefit of opting to work with a Christian Executive Coach is getting help in identifying the best paths for your goals and encouragement for remaining grounded and understanding that you are never alone. There are other people who are facing the very same challenges that you're facing. This is sufficient assurance for maintaining your confidence, motivation and direction.
