The Benefits

Measure What Matters

Torch reporting provides leaders and learners with the data needed to show success. Our assessments include peer feedback to move beyond self-reported metrics and measure what truly matters: behavior change.

Increase self-awareness

Coaches act as a sounding board to improve self awareness and identify opportunities for growth—whether that’s through two-way dialogue or Torch’s 360 Leadership Assessment

Exceptional Coaches

Coaches go through a rigorous vetting process with a 7% acceptance rate. Torch maintains a 96% match success rate and an overall NPS of +84 at Gilead Sciences since 2020

How can you use coaching?

Coaching facilitates and accelerates your professional growth via:

  • Ongoing development: work on leadership skills.
  • Situational support: talk through tough situations, prepare for a big meeting or a difficult conversation.
  • Overcoming internal blocks to success: identify limiting beliefs that are keeping you from taking your career to the next level.
  • Improving professional relationships and communication: close the gap between current and ideal state in interpersonal and team interactions
  • Career planning: thought-partnership in visioning and planning your career trajectory.

How it works

  1. Evaluate

    Building self awareness is the first step toward growth. The Torch Leadership Assessment helps experienced professionals gain clarity on existing strengths and development opportunities.

  2. Coach

    During regular 1:1 video sessions, an experienced Torch coach will help the leader build a custom development plan based on their leadership assessment results.

  3. Execute

    Leaders then set their own growth goals with the help of their Torch coach. Together, they will define specific actions to track progress and hit leadership development targets.

  4. Grow

    Integrate learnings and capture insights for a new leadership future.
