Team coaching
Team coaching is the fuel to power high performing teams.
Through coaching we break down barriers to effective communication and collaboration. We consider our purpose - what’s the thing that really has us committed to this work and therefore committed to being in this work together?
The result? Purpose-driven teams who understand each other. They work powerfully and creatively together. They know how to bring play into the workplace, and bring joy into their working lives. They are willing to get messy with each other, knowing that they can clean anything up. They lead and empower others. They want to be there. And they want to make a difference.
We are better together. Shared ideas, shared experiences, shared resources. Yet our work lives often have us siloed, and playing catch-up and make-up.
How does it work?
Every team is different. And every workplace has different goals. So team coaching is a bespoke experience designed in partnership with you. For large teams, we might coach in multiple smaller groups. I limit the numbers per group to around 8 people, but 6 is a great group size.
What about leaders?
Leaders are the clearing for how it goes within organisations. How they are being influences how the team is being. So, for directors and team leaders, I recommend including some one-to-one coaching into your package. This creates the space for them to really step into their brilliance as a leader.
Coaching or training?
I’m a qualified coach, but also a highly experienced consultant, speaker and trainer. Coaching is very much led by the individual clients, whereas consulting and training is led more by me. In some team coaching packages, we’ll create a blend of coaching and training.
When and where?
I deliver most coaching sessions by online video call. This format works whether I am coaching teams or individuals. If your package includes longer training sessions and you would like these to be delivered on site, that can be agreed. But training can also be very effectively delivered online.
Is it all about collaboration?
If your goal for team coaching is focused on developing a team or teams who are more collaborative and actually working and behaving as a team, then my specialist Collaborative teams might be the best programme for you. I offer a range of support to foster greater collaboration from an inspiring talk, to a day-long workshop, or a longer-term programme. I can also facilitate and curate your away day and team retreat programmes to really kick-start new ways of working and inspire creative and collaborative thinking.
