Team Coaching

Nowadays teams need to achieve results increasingly quickly in a complex and changing competitive environment.

The Team Coaching Programme is addressed to certified coaches who want to develop the competencies and skills they need to mentor teams to enhance their performance so that the overall result is far greater than the sum of its parts.

The Programme seeks to provide coaches with the specific techniques, competencies and skills required to understand the dynamics in teams and then help the latter to become aware of what is hindering or restricting their development.

It is made up of two parts. The first provides a theoretical framework in which coaches learn about the main tools and factors to be taken into account when doing this type of coaching. These include the difference between what is and what isn’t team coaching, how to adopt a systemic approach, how to identify the roles and geographical distribution of each team member, the types of conversations which cause a team to fail or be successful, etc.

The second part of the Programme is eminently practical. Each student will belong to a work team and at the same time take part in another one as a coach. That way students can practice in situ what they have learnt as a team coach.

In short, they will learn to act as mirror and give feedback to the team. A team coach needs to know that their job is to interact with the system, using those means which enable them to unblock sterile conversations and unproductive competencies and thus achieve hoped-for results.
