Every team is made up of its members: their talents their skills, their inner strengths.
But each team is also the result of the members’ mutual relationships, sense of belonging, values, attitude towards work and towards others.
In short, the team is a dynamic organism, much more than the sum of its members. This is why it is useful to devise specific coaching interventions, which aim at the effectiveness and well-being of the team as a whole and in its complexity.
The aim of team coaching is to strengthen a team’s ability to work in a focused manner, in a climate of trust and motivation, and in a sustainable way.
HOW IT IS STRUCTURED
A team coaching intervention has an important preparation phase in which the client’s specific needs are gathered and objectives are shared.
Using a battery of customised questionnaires, a portrait of the individual person and the team is built, in terms of values, skills, behaviour and culture.
Each person in the team then meets the coach for feedback and individual discussion.
Once the areas of possible intervention and the role of each person in relation to them have been identified, the next two days of team coaching are dedicated to sharing and choosing the areas of improvement on which to intervene and to drawing up the team action plan to be implemented in the following months, which will be verified during planned follow-ups.
THE BENEFITS OF TEAM COACHING
Awareness of one’s own drives, values and behaviour, as well as an exchange between team members with respect to differences and similarities; personal and team accountability on the action plan; definition of mutual commitments with respect to everyone’s contribution to the achievement of objectives and the building of a positive climate.
