| · Team
and Peer Group Coaching · Coaching doesn't have to always be 1-to-1. Team coaching is also powerful and can be used in different ways. A new or re-organised team will benefit from understanding their individual strengths and abilities which will enable them to operate synergistically by design, rather than by trial and error. A team coach can help in fast tracking and ironing out those initial forming and storming periods, supporting them to create a much bigger vision of what is possible for them as a team rather than as a group of individuals. A group is quite a different entity; it might be a peer group, or a collection of individuals with similar challenges or interests. A group of new managers brought in from outside is a good example, or groups that have been formed as a result of diversity programmes. In these instances the coach seeks to work with the group to identify common areas of strength and challenge and then works with them to decide the strategies and actions that the group can take as a whole and as individuals to achieve the desired outcome. Both teams and groups require the support of their line or sponsor to achieve their goals, and sometimes it is appropriate for individuals to have some 1-to-1 coaching to ensure their contribution to the greater vision. This is a very broad and sometimes nebulous area of coaching, albeit highly effective in the right situation. So if you think that you may benefit from team or group coaching we would encourage you to be in touch so that we talk through the scenario and really identify what would be most effective for your particular circumstance.
