Leadership is a Team sport
Create a team that works great together
Building a successful team is not easy. It can be extremely difficult to be innovative, build a successful business, develop people, build a team, create a company culture, engage and motivate employees, and have everyone’s voice in the company heard. It’s a lot!
Being a good leader takes fierce courage, commitment, and lots of communication. Every business goes through its ups and downs. And one leader cannot do it alone — leadership belongs to the team.
Although it sounds like an impossible task, the good news is you can do it, I can support your team to improve team dynamics that will create a top-performing team with a supportive company culture.
My goal is to bring passion back into the workplace by transforming relationships. My purpose is to help you feel like a real team and create a psychologically safe workplace where team members can be authentic and free of assumptions about how they ‘should’ work and communicate in order to feel heard, appreciated and accountable.
My approach is to create systems inspired culture with your team from the inside out that is driven by collaborative leadership because I believe that leadership is a role that is shared by the team. This approach is vital for teams to create psychological safety, improve productivity and innovation in the workplace while promoting and encouraging continuous learning and collaboration. I want to help you develop an intelligent team that is inspired by shared leadership and I will do this by shaking things up and challenging the status quo — by transforming team relationships.
Great relationships within teams generate success. Teams that work well together — grow together.
Signs that your team might benefit from Team Coaching:
Changes in the company: Company growth and expansion generated new work processes and team members are trying to figure out how to work with these changes and each other.
Lack of clarity and direction: You’re on your way toward success — the company is growing and you need help to take you to the next level.
Toxic communication: Demands and pressures of expansion might evoke some stress, tension, negative energy, and finger-pointing.
Undefined roles or new emerging roles and responsibilities: You need clarity to motivate and inspire team members.
I know that when alignment is lacking it can easily create an environment of tension, blaming, lack of ownership or accountability, and toxic communication. As a result, clients, company productivity and profitability suffer. This costs a lot.
Lack of communication and undefined roles leads to employee disengagement, high turnover of employees, and high costs of recruitment and training. My coaching focuses on creating a space, openness and deep democracy through the Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching to support teams in creating an inspiring culture and skillset that delivers meaningful results.
How Team Coaching can improve your performance:
Team coaching generates results by building and strengthening relationships among team members in order to create a systems inspired leadership. It optimizes your team’s performance by cultivating greater awareness of the relationship system that drives your company in the following ways:
Identify and utilize strengths and opportunities for the growth of each team member. Empower, engage, and inspire the full potential of your team.
Identify a common vision, shared values, clear goals, and plans for the team.
Empower every voice, cultivate interdependence, and build cohesive units of motivated individuals excited to work and achieve success together.
Establish clear roles, responsibilities, expectations and, working boundaries within your team to improve collaboration and increase momentum.
Convert challenges into opportunities. Help your team navigate through conflict by embracing it as a sign that a change is trying to happen.
Develop partnerships that produce results by creating trust, respect, and understanding.
Create a positive culture by establishing an environment that celebrates diversity and encourages curiosity.
Establish an environment of continuous learning and development of high-performing teams.
How I will support you and your team:
My team coaching program is a series of coaching sessions and workshops where I’ll take you from stuck, exhausted, frustrated and faced with conflict to increased clarity, energy and inspiration with a clear strategy, roles and skilful communication, which will result in increased productivity and profitability.
Great relationships within teams generate success!
I see people in organizations as human beings with emotions, having good and bad days, desires, dreams, hopes for the future and fears.
The teams I work with are innovative, professional, successful, ambitious, determined who have lots of ideas but are struggling with change facilitation, relationship management and are looking for support growing their business by identifying clear roles, shared vision and structure to move their company to the next level.
It’s time to feel excited about creating something bigger in your organization.
Let’s give your team a purpose around which to come up with innovative ideas that will transform your organization from surviving to thriving.
How it works:
My Team Coaching Program is year-long commitment and includes the following:
Systems Entry: Reveal how your team is ‘breathing’ – identify communication strengths and areas for improvements.
One on one interviews: I will conduct a series of interviews with team members, leaders, and any stakeholders to negotiate and design the type of services needed.
Online assessment(s): Your team members will also complete Individual online assessments to establish a compelling rationale for change and reveal leadership development efforts.
Structuring the Partnership:
Alignment coaching
Understanding toxic communication and your natural default when in conflict
Setting boundaries
Having difficult conversations to hear what you’ve not been saying to each other
Defining external + internal roles
Setting expectations
Understanding what is impacting the team relationship
Action Plan and Completion
Based on the results of the interviews and online assessments, I’ll share recommended tools and action plans to set your organization up for success in increasing performance and productivity. In this stage, we will work together through the following process:
Creation and Delivery — Co-create and design training or workshops to address your teams’ needs.
Training Delivery — I'll deliver the training, facilitate deep conversations, fun and engaging activities that will create deep learning and growth for your team members and system as a whole.
Collaboration is not easy. It takes a lot of courage, transparency, open communication, dedication, and commitment to get separate groups to work together in harmony. It’s hard work to create a unified system of many different personalities.
It’s tough and it’s possible, and I can help you achieve this. Together we’ll create a plan and strategy to address your challenges by focusing on the areas that need the most attention, becoming aware of your blind spots by having open, honest, and sometimes uncomfortable conversations.
