Team Coaching

Overview

Team coaching is a powerful way for groups, teams, and organizations to build capacity and enhance performance. Ideal for small teams of approximately 6-10 people, this type of coaching empowers clients to engage in collective development and powerful dialogue to reach their common purpose and shared goals. Coaches partner with clients to co-create a space for reflection and exploration that often focuses on team dynamics and relationships, agility, innovation, possibilities, and goal alignment. Through powerful questions and conversation that are both generative and strengths-based, our coaches help inspire teams to strengthen connections, identify strengths, celebrate possibilities, maximize potential, and unleash their collective genius. 

In addition to being highly skilled in coaching, our team coaches are masters in facilitation. Though team coaching is client-driven and flexible, the group nature of the engagement requires thoughtful design, strong group management, creativity, and structure. Our team coaches have deep knowledge of and extensive experience with adult learning, team behavior, and group dynamics, as well as are recognized by clients and peers as excellent facilitators. 

While our team coaching engagements are customized based on our clients’ unique desires, a common offering may include:

  • 50-minute sessions 
  • Monthly or twice monthly
  • Six months in duration
  • Virtual and/or in person
  • Team application assessments focused on strengths, preferences, conflict style, problem solving, etc.

As with individual coaching, we are committed to confidentiality and preserving safe spaces for dialogue and development. We strongly value our Self-to-SymphonyTM continuum concept, where growth stems from a genuine curiosity and understanding of self as well as an appreciation of the impact on the larger system. As such, we encourage our team coaching participants to have open conversations with their leaders and colleagues about the coaching experience, their individual development, and positive applications to the larger system. The team coaching experience, coupled with these open conversations, supports our client organizations in expanding their coaching capacity and capability as a mindset, skill set, and ultimately an integral part of their culture.
