Stanford Executive Program Participants

Impact Coaching

SEP isn’t just about learning. It’s about doing. And doing is often the hardest part. That’s why we support SEP participants with access to a full-year of executive coaching. Unlimited hours of one-on-one virtual sessions with your coach will empower and motivate you to achieve positive, long-term behavioral changes — in yourself, your team, and your organization.

Leadership Coaching on Your Terms

When you return to work, Stanford Executive Program provides you with coaches trained in SEP curriculum and a technology platform that gives you anytime, anywhere access — across time zones and languages.

Your personally selected coach will work with you on an ongoing basis — before, during, and after your on-campus experience. You’ll have a strategic sounding board, thought partner, motivator, and listener in your corner to increase your accountability, provide guidance, and offer real-time feedback as you put SEP learning into action.

Coaching facilitates impact beyond the program, more than just the classroom curriculum alone. Coaching is an opportunity for participants to personalize their SEP experience and to receive expert advice and feedback on individual goals and action learning plans.
