Team Development & Coaching
Collective leadership and continuous learning
Teams are the engines of organizational success, serving as the core units for collective productivity and innovation. When teams function effectively, employees experience higher levels of job satisfaction and professional growth which, in turn, brings significant value to the organization and its beneficiaries.
Whether it’s departmental teams, cross functional teams, or virtual teams, productivity is determined by how well people work and learn together in pursuit of a common goal.
Strategic, systemic, impactful approaches for building the capacity for individuals to work, learn, and achieve more together.
Team Coaching
Team Coaching is a good choice for any team seeking to enhance their impact and outcomes through improved internal team dynamics. The focus is on the team as a whole and involves a careful exploration of current and desired state. The overarching goal is for all team members to experience their team as a healthy entity, with high morale and positive affect, where they can do their best work in collaboration with others to achieve a purpose that would otherwise be impossible.

Build A Team Charter
A team charter is a powerful tool for engaging and aligning a team around shared purpose, priorities, commitments, and accountabilities. Co-created by the team, it captures agreements on the organization’s mandate vis a vis the team, team purpose, roles, strengths, outcomes, and collaboration practices. Whether working in-person, hybrid, or fully remote, co-creating a team charter is a wonderful team development exercise in and of itself.
- realign an existing team
- onboard new team members
- launch a new team
Ask me about a do-it-yourself approach to charter development where i work one-to-one with the team lead or designate to support them in facilitating the process for developing their own team charter.
Systemic Team Coaching
Systemic Team Coaching implies a deep system partnership with all team members, and their wider eco-system beneficiaries and benefactors. Systemic Team Coaching is a consolidation of systems intelligence and team dynamics that acknowledges the emergent properties of living systems, the importance of purpose, and the complexity associated with countless interdependencies, nested systems, and constant change.
