True motivation and engagement result from the inclusion in the process of setting goals, evaluating performance, defining challenges and working out solutions. Team coaching is an approach particularly useful in the context of defining operational goals, improving relations and the quality of cooperation and communication. Tapping into the potential and synergy of the team leads to the feeling of stability and performance at the predictably high level.
Assumptions of team coaching
- Teams are created to deliver business results
- Individual members want to create teams that achieve results and want to have their individual contribution
- The team has all the necessary resources to succeed
- The team is a living and evolving organism
Relatively few teams achieve the level of performance, engagement and energy they could enjoy. Organisations perform well if they have cohesive and effective teams that assume accountability for delivering business results. In the longer perspective, companies win if they foster good human relations within the teams and their members play to the same goal – understand the objectives and priorities at the team level and are able to align those with the organizational priorities.
Building effective teams is based on trust, readiness to engage in healthy conflicts, commitment, accountability and care for the ultimate business result.
