When it comes to executive clients, professional coaches have seen it all, from those who had quick commercial success to those whose mistakes caused their enterprises to go in the wrong way. Each of these problems offered executive clients—and their coaches—a chance to learn.

Below, Dr. GB Hewawasam shares a key leadership lesson he gleaned from coaching executive clients.

“New leaders must be able to analyze their own thought patterns and emotions. By directing more energy into our personal cognitive processes, we become better equipped in understanding ourselves and how to improve our personal skills. Once we are confident in enhancing our own abilities, we are able to guide and lead others to their personal success.”
