Based on the combination of our experience and the most up to date research, The Bailey Group has identified a list of personality traits and characteristics that define a healthy, effective and successful leader.
The Bailey Group’s Executive Coaching model is based on the premise that growing as a leader requires growing in self-awareness and “seeing” your habits of behavior. Importantly, it also requires a willingness to experiment with new and more constructive beliefs and behaviors, even if it is uncomfortable or even scary.
