Coaching Program Shows Whether Emotional Intelligence Can Clash With High Potentials

March 21, 2017 – – The Strategic Edge, a business in New York, NY, is proud to announce that they are offering a new coaching program for executives and the development of their leadership potential. This program focuses specifically on high potentials and on how this links to emotional intelligence. These enhancement programs are designed for people who have high-functioning leadership ability and need to improve their already evident capabilities.

Meredith Gardner, Ph.D., from the Strategic Edge says: “I often work with geniuses… They are people who are remarkably perceptive about everything but their own personalities. The most effective leaders are great communicators who adapt their communication style in order to influence others, but they need enhancement training to climb the corporate ladder.”

All organizations understand that they have a number of high potentials within their midst. These are the people that have the most potential to become true leaders and to drive the company to great heights. Unfortunately, these high potentials are often overlooked, due to two main reasons. First of all, HR executives generally feel that everybody has potential, and it is therefore not fair to invest heavily in one person, but not in an other. Second, since only a very small percentage of the entire workforce is a high potential, companies are quite secretive about this, so as to not demotivate others.

Interestingly, in a recent survey, it was shown that 50% of companies state that only 10% of their time is spent on leadership development. Yet, 93% also feel that high potentials are more likely to get promoted. Dr. Gardner wants to balance these two figures, thereby ensuring that more of the right people can get the same opportunities.

Those who have worked with Dr. Gardner in the past and have used her services have been very happy about the results. “Meredith,” says Henry L. on The Strategic Edge’s website, “you are more than a leadership guru – it doesn’t fully incorporate everything you are. You are part leadership consultant/life coach/spiritual advisor/out-of-the-box solution finder/holistic/emphatic/evolutionary (helps you grow organically)/revolutionary (radically different approach to coaching)/visionary (sees beyond the obvious).”

People are encouraged to visit the website for further information on Dr. Gardner’s executive coaching tools.
