Who is Corporate Philosophy? We are a Minnesota based firm which offers philosophic coaching to businesses with locations around the world. For information about our services and our general practice, click here.
What is “philosophic coaching?” Philosophic coaching is a method of systematic reflection on major issues affecting business in today’s fast-paced, global, and multi-cultural settings. Such major issues as: + establishing more clear business ethics + exploring the meaning of work and life + having the wisdom to lead well + improving performance by clear thinking + uncovering each manager’s personal view of life & the world + becoming more open to bold, new ideas.
What services do we offer?
1. Personal coaching for top corporate leaders. This usually takes place as one-on- one conversation, in the office, over lunch, or after work hours. Personal coaching normally occurs for top managers only.
2. Short seminars and staff retreats. There are two possible retreats or workshops, either of which are offered for groups ranging from ten to thirty persons.
3. Advisory services and third-party feedback. This involves a philosophy coach listening in at various corporate meetings, and providing feedback directly to the leaders. Because we are disengaged from the actual business, philosophy coaches bring fresh insight which can often determine success. All third party feedback is confidential.
4. Philosophy Audits or Reviews. These powerful corporate experiences lead to unified workforce outcomes and strong performance. They allow you to get a fresh start and examine all the philosophical questions surrounding your company.
What other services does Corporate Philosophy provide?
5. Design and Communication. One of the key elements in developing a successful understanding of corporate philosophy is communicating it to those whom you want to know about you. At Corporate Philosophy, we provide the writers, editors, designers, and creative marketing folks to help you do this.
But why is philosophy – personal or corporate – so important? Companies are not made up of balance sheets and income statements alone. They're not merely a group of workers set side by side collectively. Companies are formed by the successful merger of many persons, each an individual center of initiative. What binds us together within the company is an intangible, universal human search for purpose and meaning.
This transcends religion, politics, and even the desire for wealth and power. It is basic, and ever present. Becoming conscious of that which is present via this inborn human nature, creates a corporate environment in which workers collaborate more, are more effective, and perhaps above all, where workers are happiest.
