Generally short term or a limited number of sessions

Main outcome is improved performance

Meeting is tailored to the individual client

It’s about learning to thrive

‘Coaching’ is familiar i.e. dance coaching, voice coaching

Designed to be empowering and uplifting

TEAM COACHING

Team coaching is focused on coaching a team to achieve a common goal and enables increased individual performance, team collaboration and improved results.

Team coaching leads to growth, behaviour change and increased awareness of how the team functions. This awareness is the key to the team taking ownership and responsibility for team functioning, improved performance, and the achievement of stretch goals.

PROCESS CONSULTING

Busy senior executive teams under pressure to achieve ambitious targets and timetables inevitably focus on tasks rather than process in their agenda-driven executive meetings.

Process consulting enables and encourages teams to focus on how they function, particularly around decision-making and problem-solving. Our experienced process consultant will observe the team in action and share what he notices, including the boundaries between people, what he feels and thinks in response to the team’s functioning, and identify themes and patterns for which there is energy.

This process of holding up the mirror is a powerful experience for boards and senior teams, leading to increased collaboration, team functioning and enhanced performance.
