LEADERSHIP IS A CONTACT SPORT
Many leadership coaches are paid for the wrong reasons. Their income is mostly related to how much their clients like them and how much time they spend on their coachees. However, this is not a good metric when it comes to achieving positive, long-term changes in leadership behavior.
There are no previous studies that prove the correlation between a client’s likability and leadership change. In fact, most of the time, coaches who are too focused on getting the client to like them may not provide honest feedback when it is needed — which means, they are not helping their client as effectively as they should be.
My approach to coaching is different — "I don't get paid if you don't get better". "Better" is not judged by me, nor the leader being coached. Better is judged by those who contact on a regular basis with the leader: manager, peers and subordinates. I believe the development of a leader is a contact sport.
I work with my clients exclusively based on results.
How many of the Top 10 tennis players in the world have coaches?
All of them. They all have help.
Can you imagine Roger Federer or Serena Williams without a coach? Why would we think that these greats need help, and we in leadership positions can do it by ourselves.

EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP COACHING
Improving your leadership skills does not happen by accident. Rather than just give you advice and send you on your way, Carlos has a very unique approach to executive coaching. He Guarantees Measurable Leadership Growth and therewith differentiates itself from most other coaching methodologies.
“My coach Carlos DaSilva realized I often struggled to display executive presence, which undermined my communication impact. This gap not only hindered my personal growth but also impacted my effectiveness as a leader in PostFinance’s dynamic landscape. Addressing these issues was crucial for my career and the success of the teams I lead.”
João P. Oliveira, Head of Key Account Manager, PostFinance Switzerland
WHO IS CARLOS DASILVA?
Carlos DaSilva is the Director of the Executive MBA at the HEG School of Management Switzerland. He hold a Ph.D. in Management Science from the USA.
Formerly, Carlos was the Managing Director of the Silicon Valley Founder Institute Technology Accelerator. He has coached over 100 entrepreneurs and since worked with thousands of executives from companies like Nestlé, SWATCH, ALCON, UBS, and BMW.
His reputation as a supportive, results-oriented executive is built on his experience running Executive MBA programs, a scientific grounding in management and a hands-on approach to leadership coaching learned from Marshall Goldsmith.
As a leadership speaker, Carlos brings a candid and compassionate voice to stages worldwide, sharing his expertise alongside with best-selling author Daniel Pink, awarding winning photographer Platon, and world-famous UGG Shoes founder Brian Smith, to name a few.
MEASURABLE LEADERSHIP GROWTH
A lot of what passes for leadership development can be a waste of time. I can say this first-hand as Director of an Executive MBA program.
See if you recognize this process:
-
Your company taps you as a future leader. It sends you to "leadership camp," which can last anywhere from a day to a couple of weeks.
-
You're entertained by a parade of speakers (like me).
-
You're required to critique the speakers and rate how effective they were.
But nobody is rating you. Nobody is following up to see what you learned or if you have actually become a more effective leader.
Coaching performance should be measured.
That is why I work with Marshall Goldsmith - The Nº 1 coaching process for leadership development in the world.
Of the 11,000 leaders who have been through this process, 95% demonstrated quantifiable improvement in their leadership effectiveness.
“Successful people become great leaders when they learn to shift the focus from themselves to others.”
Marshall Goldsmith
# 1 leadership thinker in the world by Thinkers50 and Harvard Business
