Team Coaching and Facilitation

Team coaching is a powerful way of engaging staff in decision-making and planning, empowering teams to develop and work more effectively together to increase productivity and overall effectiveness.

It can be used with leadership teams, small peer groups or agency-wide.

Our facilitator uses the core principles of coaching to encourage each team member to have their say and find solutions through an open and honest dialogue, resulting in a  concensus view and a clear set of goal-focused actions.

We can support you with:

- leadership development, helping to identify strengths and weaknesses, working styles and personal priorities

- strategy and business plan development, providing space for effective planning for the future

- problem-solving, supporting you to bring together different views and work to find the right one for your organisation

- risk assessment and improved productivity, encouraging the team to anticipate risks and seek ways of overcoming them

This may involve a single awayday, a series of facilitated discussions, or a mix of group and 1-1 coaching sessions.

Please contact us to discuss your particular need and together we will find the most appropriate coaching and facilitation mix to support you in achieving your desired outcome.

Training theory

“I practise what I preach so my workshops are highly interactive, with lots of opportunity for delegates to try out coaching techniques and see what works best for them.I adopt a down-to-earth approach sharing what works for me and why, based on my coach training and first-hand experience of what it’s like working in a frenetic PR team.Delegates leave having set a new goal with next steps action plan and a toolkit enabling them to put their learning into practice as soon as they return to work.
