TEAMS365 #3323: Video of the Week – Revisiting the Team and Group Coaching Superpowers

2/8/2023

This week’s Video of the Week is which you can find at this link.

Having been involved in training others around team and group coaching skills for almost 19 years now, I have been fascinated to see the range required by coaches when we work with more than one person. Some people prefer a fast pace and strategic level of conversation, while others want granular detail and a slow pace. Some see the world in metaphors, while others may need to sketch things out.

As coaches a next layer of learning, awareness and insight is around our own presence and range. What can we do to adjust our stye and approaches to meet these varying needs?

Check out the Team and Group Coaching Superpower Quiz. It only takes 2-3 minutes to complete on your phone.

Afterwards you can view a short video describing what may be one of your primary strengths out of the 5 superpowers. Be sure to also download the report as well!

You will find the Team and Group Coaching Superpower Quiz here.

I explore the Five Team and Group Coaching Superpowers in our new ACTIVATE Your Group and Team Coaching Superpower program – approved for 14 CCEs. Join us for the next offering (note this is offered 4-5 times a year). Learn more and register at this link.

Enjoy your conversation!

#TEAMS365 #1708 – Key activities for the new month – coaching, goals, setting routines

9/4/2018

0 Comments

It’s likely that this month your team is coming back together after months where not everyone may not have been around. September is an important time to get back to routines and habits, as well as creating new ones that may work better. Consider what you are doing (as a team, and as a professional) around these key areas:
Meetings – with meetings taking upwards of 40% of professionals times, what are the ESSENTIAL meetings to schedule this month? What can be deferred? Which ones do you need to negotiate your presence at? Where do you need to be, where you are not already? What’s going to make your meetings more effective?
Coaching Conversations – “Coaching is a conversation with intent” is what I wrote back in 2013 in my book “From One to Many: Best Practices for Team and Group Coaching”. What are the focused conversations you want to have an on a REGULAR basis this fall? What needs, and warrants, attention? What type of conversations are going to support different team members?
Email and Communication – What’s working with communication right now? What’s not? What can be streamlined (think email)? What are people’s preferences?
FOCUS – What are the interruptions that are pulling you off course? As you think about the last few months, what’s helped with your focus? What’s hindered? In today’s workspace focus is at a premium. What are the pockets where you can create more focus to get the important things done?
Renewal – The field of high performance sport shows that renewal is just as important as running. What are you doing to build in times for FOCUS and Renewal?

Best

Team Leader Group Coaching Program starts May 27

4/8/2014

0 Comments

I am pleased to announce that this spring and summer I'll be holding a four month group coaching program for team leaders.

We will be meeting by phone as a small group three times a month (12 hours in total), and I'll be holding two individual coaching calls with each team leader each month. We will be exploring topics geared to support you in enhancing your awareness and impact as a team leader. I'll be working with a maximum of six team leaders in each group.

Some of the areas we will be exploring are:

What are my strengths as a Team Leader
What's important to me as a team leader - my values
What's my vision for my work as a leader? For the team?
What is my style - the strengths and opportunities it poses as a leader. Each one of you will complete the Everything DiSC assessment to learn more about your unique style.

Group Calls will be held on Tuesdays from 12 - 1 pm Eastern/New York May through September 2014 By Phone. Group calls will be held May 27, June 3, 10, 24, July 8, 15, 22, August 5, 12, 19, September 9 and 16.

Individual coaching calls will be scheduled with you separately (2 x 30 minute coaching calls per month for each of the four months)

More information about the program here. I'll be holding calls on Mondays and Fridays over the next month to answer any questions you might have about how this could be a good fit for you. Click here to reserve your spot. I will plan to call you unless you note otherwise.

You can also listen into this recent audio about the program (approximately 6min) here.

What you will need to participate:
Access to a US based bridgeline where calls will be held. We will also move to a webinar format for some of our later calls
Ability to participate during these dates and commit to the four month coaching process - 3 x group calls per month, 2 x individual calls

Click here to learn more and reserve your spot. I hope that you will take advantage of speaking to me in the next few weeks to learn more about the program. Reserve a call space here.

With best wishes,
Jennifer

Teams 365 # 64: Silos In Your Organization

3/5/2014

0 Comments

Silos are common place in so many organizations today. Some argue that strengthening teams may in fact create even more silos.

Healthy organizations have strong team identity as well as strong cross-team relationships. This is where my work as both a group and team coach is often positioned in organizations. Group coaching creates an opportunity for dialogue across an organization, and the silos which exist, and team coaching, helps to strengthen both the team relationships and results.

Question to consider:
What silos currently exist in your organization?
How are they detrimental?
Are there any benefits to silos?

With best wishes,
Jennifer
