The Coaching Effect Academy by Ecsell Institute, May 2025

Based on Ecsell Institute's research, we know that:

- the top 20 percent of leaders drive $4.3 million a year in additional revenue by coaching differently than their peers, but...

- 7 out of 10 leaders have not been provided the right coaching training and resources to be a top-performing coach.

The Coaching Effect Academy is an intensive research-backed virtual course that teaches leaders precisely how to be the best possible coach for their teams. It is designed to deliver the highest quality leadership training in a flexible and cost-effective way, both for senior leaders and front-line managers. Leaders will acquire all of the information, best practices, and tools needed to make a significant and lasting impact on their teams and career.

Through a series of five virtual sessions across two days, leaders will achieve vital skills supported by objective data in order to become a high-performance coach.
