TEAM COACHING

Ridler & Co is regularly commissioned to work with boards, executive committees and other senior teams.

Benefits of team coaching

Teams often face complex group dynamics which may manifest in leadership which is too accommodating or too domineering, political rivalries, interpersonal tensions between team members, or seemingly irrational, disruptive behaviour by individual team members. Such phenomena may make it more difficult for the team to focus on its work in the most productive way.

Team coaching can help the team refocus on its purpose, reflect on dynamics which are preventing it from getting its work done efficiently and form a plan to increase its effectiveness in moving together towards its business objectives, often more harmoniously.

 

Ridler & Co’s approach to team coaching

Ridler & Co designs bespoke interventions to address the specific context and presenting dynamics of each team. Clive’s training in group dynamics helps him identify and draw the team’s attention to patterns emerging within the team, following which a plan can be drawn up to resolve the issues identified.

 

Team coaching situations

Team coaching can be helpful when:

  • A newly formed team needs to achieve a crucial business objective quickly or under pressure.
  • A new leader joins an established team which is experiencing repetitive or unhelpful dynamics.
  • A team is operating more as a collection of individuals with their own separate agendas, rather than as an entity with a collective energy and purpose.
  • Communication within the team becomes defensive or destructive.
  • Conflict becomes a barrier to success rather than an enabler of greater creativity.
  • Virtual teams need to build closer relationships with each other to make their collaboration more productive.
