Team
coaching

Increasing your senior team’s capacity to deliver great results is no less important than the great results you deliver — if you want to sustain success over time, that is. Best suited to building on what’s working rather than fixing what’s broken, team coaching is a powerful way to clarify and strengthen how your team:

  • Defines “team”

  • Maintains clear role expectations

  • Identifies and tracks success metrics

  • Makes decisions

  • Recognizes and addresses patterns of behavior and engagement

  • Communicates with each other and with stakeholders

  • Establishes and honors espoused values and norms

  • Shares accountability

As with executive coaching, the structure of a team coaching engagement can be tailored to the needs of the team to focus on broad themes, specific goals, or a defined period of time.

I’ve facilitated peer coaching experiences as distinct cohort-based programs as well as within leader and manager development curricula. What I have observed is that this reflective approach to learning can yield exponential insights. As described by participants, benefits include the opportunity to…

  • Be heard and seen by others who understand your context

  • Strengthen your ability to provide and receive coaching well

  • Recognize in the stories of others some of the habits of mind you’ve developed — habits that may be ripe for refinement

  • Gain appreciation for both the universality and uniqueness of the challenges you face

  • Add to your network of co-learners and co-creators

Depending on the needs of your organization, I can work with you to design a package to support and challenge the senior and high potential individuals you want to invest in. Whether they are peers by virtue of their roles, their common pain points, or other affinity, we can tailor a program that meets them where they are and moves them forward.

“As a high-performing team, we were no strangers to the importance of nurturing our team culture and dynamics. However, integrating coaching seamlessly into our regular meetings provided invaluable real-time insights. Vicky was an outstanding partner in this process, helping us identify and understand the elements we wished to sustain or evolve.”
