Team Development and Coaching
We coach courageous leaders and their teams in high tech industries to develop the natural potential of the team and achieve common performance challenges. When teams are not functioning as one, there are lost opportunities to attain sustainable high performance and ultimately deliver exceptional business results. This team development process goes beyond team building into team transformation.
Leaders and teams in high tech come together for one reason - to get results.
The results are only half the story. The most successful teams in the industry are those who have developed the ability to sustain high performance. They are disciplined teams who are positively engaged, while consistently being productive, together.
How do we work with you to develop your team?
The Team Systems Development Process
A high performing team is not simply a machine. It is a living system with spoken and unspoken rules, vision, blind spots, expectations, disappointments, moods and a personal spirit that all impact what kind of success is possible.
The team systems development process is a discipline, just like setting performance objectives. When teams commit to developing themselves as one system, they get better results. They thrive and succeed as sustainable entities particularly in times of change and challenge.
How could your team benefit from coaching?
The Team Coaching Process:
Step 1: Meet with the leader to determine where the team is positioned presently and to co-design the organizational context for the first 1-2 day team learning and development workshop. Provide a written proposal of the team coaching work.
Step 2: All team members will complete the online confidential Stellar Team Diagnostic. This is a team assessment that views the team as one system.
Step 3: The whole team participates in the team systems development and coaching workshop - learning about team as a system, and experiencing where the team is now and where it wants to go next to enhance its performance. This workshop is situated in the context of what is most important to the team for the next 12-18 months.
Step 4: Six follow-up team coaching sessions (one hour each) by phone with the team. Drives accountability for shifting the system towards their performance and development goals.
Step 5: Custom design with the leader an ongoing development plan for the team which may include continuing teleconference coaching, quarterly full day team coaching sessions or other follow-up learning and coaching. Most clients continue a structured approach to ongoing follow up - to keep the team focused on working as one system. This work is a discipline and requires ongoing attention to realize the full impact of the team development program.
