Masterclass outline:

The big problems of the world can only be solved through brilliant collaboration. We know there’s a huge role for team coaching in enabling this. Hence our profession is exploding, thought leaders abound and it seems like new insights are published every month. But as practitioners we have found that these do not always reflect the messy reality of team coaching - even less so in a virtual world of distributed teams. In this interactive and experiential session we’ll explore several of these discoveries. We will delve into coaching with courage and “sitting in the fire.” And we’ll get into the arena to practice, so put your coaching pants on.

Masterclass aims & objectives:

• Unpack the notion of Real Team Coaching.

• BE a team coach, versus DOING team coaching.

• Work flexibly and deeply and in the here-and-now with teams.

• Hold the space and contain discomfort within yourself and the team.

• Keep building confidence and competence as a team coach.

• Experience creating a virtual container.

Masterclass content:

• Resolving the tensions you experience as a team coach.

• Exploring fear & vulnerability as a team coaching.

• Developing your presence and capacity to stay in the moment.

• Courageously diving into the unknown of emergent team coaching.

• Practice, practice, practice.

• And doing so while coaching virtually!
