Lead With Confidence
We know that great leaders need structured and inspiring training to unlock their absolute potential. At SBAAS, we’ve developed coaching programs at the Executive level that will teach management top skills and strategies necessary to run a smooth operation.
Guiding teams to excellence takes mental resilience and often leads to burnout or several frustrations, but it doesn’t have to. We take a holistic approach when working with top tier leaders and keep mental well-being at the core of everything. You learn to overcome everyday issues through improved emotional intelligence, mindfulness and acquiring the tools required to achieve sustainable success.
Executive coaching is a confidential process and one that stretches and challenges the coachee, as they develop new skills and behaviours. It is also a process where in the moment feedback is given, based on what the coach sees, hears and observes.

Benefits of Executive Coaching
Implementing our programs secures a skill set that allows leaders to present as exceptional role models. Why is that important? Having a leader they can look up to enables team members to feel more secure and become better engaged.
This leads to reduced turnover, absenteeism, and other negative factors within the organisation, increasing profits and sustainability.
Case Study:
A National manufacturing company wanted to develop one of their staff who had started on the floor and had made their way up to a State Operations Manager role. Whilst their knowledge of how to manufacture their product was exemplary, their ability to lead and communicate in an appropriate manner with their Executive team required developing.
SBAAS worked with them, improving their leadership skills, financial literacy, and reporting skills. Within 18 months they were promoted to the National Operations Manager, overseeing a leadership team covering Queensland, Western Australia, Queensland, and Victoria.
