                                                                   Thomas Watson Group launches executive coaching services
                                                       Executive search and consulting firm expands offerings to include coaching

Glastonbury, CONN. – Thomas Watson Group, well known for executive search and consulting services, has now added executive coaching to their roster of services. Founder and CEO Thomas Watson is a formally trained Columbia University executive coach with significant experience in senior leadership roles in both the Fortune 100 and private equity space.

“I spent years informally coaching individuals I knew personally or professionally and realized I had a real affinity for reading people and helping them achieve their goals,” said Watson. “I decided to explore the area of executive coaching more seriously a few years ago and enrolled in the Columbia Coaching Certification Program, where I learned new techniques and honed my coaching skills. I am eager to be a coach for high-potential (or “HiPo”) leaders seeking to rapidly advance their careers.”
Watson founded Thomas Watson Group in 2013, bringing with him 30 years of experience with some of the most successful companies in the U.S.  He ran five organizations as president & CEO earlier in his career, including two business units inside Fortune 100 corporations and three private equity-backed companies. During that time, he helped countless individuals navigate corporate politics, manage conflict, develop an executive presence, improve their emotional intelligence (EI, or EQ) and so much more.

“With the core of our business being executive search and consulting, adding coaching services felt like a natural extension,” continued Watson. “Now, we enable clients to consider getting their leaders a coach instead of moving directly to a search for outside talent.  It’s a win-win for the company and the executive.”

Watson offers a personalized approach to each client, allowing the person to realize their strengths and identify opportunities for growth and development in a safe environment. Clients will be provided with tools and resources they can utilize when problem solving, connecting with others and giving and receiving feedback. Executive coaching is incredibly beneficial to leaders looking to climb the corporate ladder, as well as those recently appointed to a new position or just seeking to optimize their effectiveness and professional relationships.

“I’ve worked with Tom for 3 years in many capacities,” said an SVP of Technology at a high growth healthcare firm and now a client of Thomas Watson Group’s coaching services. “He has helped me to realize my strengths and opportunities, allowing me to become a better executive with a heightened self-awareness. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to climb the corporate ladder or who recently stepped into a demanding new position.”

Watson is now taking on new coaching clients. To learn more about Thomas Watson Group’s services and offerings, please visit thomaswatsongroup.com/.
