Let’s start with what team coaching is not: it’s not training. I’m not here to “teach” you or your team how to do your job, or teach you a new skill. Team coaching is about helping your team take ownership of their own development. It’s about putting them firmly in the driver’s seat. We shine a light on the patterns in how you work together and ask the all-important question: Do you want to keep doing things this way, or is it time for a change? My role as a team coach is to help you get there. I’ll make the team aware of what’s happening, challenge unhelpful habits, and guide you toward meaningful change. From there, we'll experiment: getting to know and try out new behaviours. Experiencing firsthand what works and what doesn’t.

And here’s the magic: it’s the team itself -not me- that takes responsibility for creating real, lasting improvements.

Team coaching can deliver the goods for all sorts of teams:

- When a team is newly formed and needs to hit the ground running.

- A team is not working effectively and both team members and business are feeling the consequences.

- A long-established team has lost some of its sparkle and wants to regain it.

- A great team that wants to get even better (it might surprise you that this happens most)

Ultimately it's important that the team itself commits to and takes the responsibility for their own development. This is something I will facilitate in the first session.

Yes! Your remote or hybrid team can be a dream team too!! We'll simply take Team Coaching online. Tried, tested, and succeeded! The rules of being an effective team apply as much to virtual teams as face to face ones. And virtual sessions definitely can be effective and fun! You could compare remote team work with an e-reader: it may initially feel not as good as a real paper book, but when you look at the many advantages (small, you can read in the dark, lightweight, it's many books in one) it might actually be better!​

One "rule": even if the team works in a hybrid way(some in the office, some remote), team coach sessions itself will be either with everyone remote (online) or with everyone face to face in the room.

And the results? I hear you ask. Well...

The team achieving the goals they formulated themselves ✅

No more elephants in the room ✅

Clear agreements and agreed ways of working ✅

Ways to deal with and address each other when the going gets tough ✅

Focus ✅

A positive energy, a joy to work together and business results ✅✅✅.

I would call that Team with a Spark✨!

The short answer is "no". Team coaching isn’t always transformational.

If there is no desire in the team for collective improvement, the impact will be very limited. Equally, the team leader needs to see that change involves them as well. That's why I always ask the team explicitly for commitment. And they have the option to say no. That's OK.

So yes, a bit of courage, vulnerability and being open to change is required. For the team and the team leader.

For Face to Face (F2F) sessions I keep a maximum of 12 team members.

For online sessions the group can be maximum 9 members.

Bigger is possible but then sessions might need to be longer. So for bigger groups: let's talk.
