Our approach
We support the team members so that they can reflect, better understand themselves and think and act differently.
We listen and intervene so that the team members become aware of how they operate: how they perceive things, what their thoughts, values and emotions are.
​
We facilitate the process enabling the desired result to emerge. Our coaching posture offers participants a secure space to open up, question their habits and learn with pleasure through co-construction, co-protection and co-permission.
How the coaching works
This coaching program is tailor-made with the team leader by establishing the program’s objectives and deliverables.
Between each session, the participants will be putting in place specific actions.
The final session, or wrap-up, is an opportunity for everyone to share what they've learned and their action plan.
Duration and format of the coaching
The duration and format depend on the situation. It is recommended to start with a two-day seminar, followed by a 1-day session every 5-6 weeks, spread over a 6-month period.
​
There will also be remote individual coaching sessions for each team member starting after the two-day seminar.
The coaching program can take place face to face as well as remotely via TEAMS with geographically dispersed teams.
Group vs Team: what is the difference?
A group is not necessarily a team. It is a group of people that have an occasional
or onetime project in common and need to work together to achieve the goal.
Whereas, a team is officially known as a team, with its own rules,
values and is long lasting while working on many different topics.
Ex. : a project group is a group, a finance department is represented by a finance team
