Coaching Team Performance and Potential
“The basis of coaching to improve team performance is not imposing
but increasing individual and collective awareness and responsibility"
Organisations hire people one at a time, but only by working cooperatively can they achieve business goals. Whether your company’s work processes are organised in formal teams, or not, few products or services are the result of one individual’s effort.
Coaching is the primary tool for managing and developing teams
Outstanding managers have always coached their teams however, in today’s pressured work environments managers are often hard pressed to find the time to invest in their team’s development. An independent Excellerate coach can play a key role by working closely with a team’s manager to bridge the gap between expectation and performance; in a similar way the coach of a sports team does.
Targetted team coaching builds the team's collective capability
An Excellerate coach works with the leader and members of a team to:
- Identify from everyone’s perspective what prevents the team from getting the results they want
and then learn about the issues they’ve identified.
- Review and improve how they organise themselves, work and think as a productive group
- Develop an understanding and appreciation of different skills, strengths and personalities within the team
- See bigger pictures, think outside the box, and solve problems more creatively
- Communicate and collaborate more effectively to meet common objectives
- Become more self-managing by developing the requisite mindset, and disciplines
For example, Excellerate has collaborated with leaders and their teams to: establish their team mission, vision, strategy, and rules of engagement; evaluate their performance and implement improvement plans, develop strategic and operational business plans; coached team leaders and members individually to facilitate team meetings and other interactions to improve the effectiveness and outcomes of the group.
Excellerate's Team Coaching Programmes
Team coaching is customised so timeframes and approach vary based on the team’s needs, situation and challenges. Other factors that may impact are the types of goals, the ways teams prefer to work, the frequency of coaching and financial resources. The programme typically involves:

Team coaching is conducted on site in person and may be supported by experiential team workshops and one on one coaching where appropriate
