Team Coaching
Introduction
At Organisational Coaching Hub, Team Coaching is our differentiator. With over 10 years of professional team coaching experience and ground-breaking research into team dynamics within organisations, we understand that no two teams are the same. Rather than following a prescribed formula for diagnosing teams, we tailor our approach – meeting your team where it is and guiding it to where it needs to be.
The Need
A two-day off-site course just isn't enough to address deeper questions of the team. Team building exercises are fun, but don't get to the real issues. It's not about one person. It's about how you collaborate as a team.
Our Service
Our Team Coaching solution works with your whole team, and your key stakeholders, to discover and develop how the team needs to collaborate to create strategic value.

Purpose of This Service
Team coaching is the fastest-growing area of coaching, driven by the growing importance of teamwork in complex, industry-leading organisations. Both new and existing teams are challenged by an array of agendas, demands, dynamics and aspirations, finding it difficult to be clear on purpose, membership, decision making and performance. This is where our coaching can help.
Who is it For?
Initially, our coaches are likely to work with the team leader to help create the conditions ripe for coaching the team as a whole.
We then switch to the team, where the leader is a member. Next we provide coaching in a number of ways in parallel:
- Coaching the team as a whole during development sessions
- Individually coaching each member of the team
- Live-action coaching of the team during work meetings
- Working with stakeholders in service of the team
Our coaches will partner with your team throughout so you never lose control.
How Does it Work?
At Organisational Coaching Hub we use our 4Cs process which we use at the program level and also for each individual session:
- Connecting – with the team, the process and the purpose
- Considering – the questions, tensions, agendas of the team and their stakeholders
- Changing – the assumptions, awareness, options, methods and the results
- Closing – the coaching work so the team is self-sustaining
It takes time to discover the deeper elements that prevent the team realising it’s true potential. This process takes several months because the symptoms are not the root causes that must change for team sustainability.
Initial Conversation
Coaching for teams requires work to position and ready the team upfront. It helps to know that your first conversation with Organisational Coaching Hub is non-committing, but will help you to understand what’s involved and how it might work for your team and your organisation.
