Teamship
Team Leadership & Team Membership
Our individual development programmes aim to enable CEOs, Executive Directors and senior leaders to not just do leadership better, but to become better leaders, instilling a growth in mindset and behaviour that is translated into excellence in action.
Our work ensures that dedicated time and a confidential space is created for leaders to develop their own capabilities, strengths, and confidence in their role, as a team leader or in their leadership and contribution as a member the team.
This work may focus on particular contextual challenges or on such areas as virtual teamship, resilience, the first ‘100 days’, the leadership of change or being ‘system savvy’.

Coaching with an EdgeTM
The modern leader and team member are required not only to lead and manage, but also to coach others to develop their capability and leadership potential.
In the environment in which leaders now operate, this is no longer an option but a fundamental requirement if they are to enable increased levels of accountability and ownership in the team, enhancement of working relationships, greater engagement, innovation, and productivity.
Coaching with an Edge™, developed over 10 years, is a modular programme specifically designed to equip team leaders, team members and specialist consultants with not only the skills and abilities, but also the mindset and approach that enables them to coach others.
Each module requires elements of preparation and pre-reading, interactive and experiential workshops, with a focus on live coaching practice, together with the development of a portfolio of learning.
- Foundation (three days): Understand and apply with increasing confidence the core coaching skills and approaches, while being clear on what needs to be learnt and unlearnt to be able to coach others safely and effectively.
- Advanced (three days): Build higher levels of skill and competence in working with more challenging scenarios, including change and transition and beliefs and values. Use positive psychology and a strength-based approach effectively, while raising awareness as to the dynamics in any coaching relationship, and how to manage these effectively.
- Practitioner (three days): Achieve the level of capability that enables work as professional coaching ‘practitioner’. Effectively support other senior leaders and teams, within complex systems and the organisational culture. How to sustain coaching habits and practice through continuous learning and coaching supervision.
The programme has been designed based on our extensive experience of training and developing coaches over the last 20 years and is cross-referenced with competency frameworks developed by the major accrediting bodies (ICF and EMCC).
Our team is made up of highly experienced coaches and team psychologists, most of whom have over 20 years’ experience supporting senior leaders in global organisations. We will match you with the coach we feel will best suit you and your team.
We provide the catalyst for organisational alignment and performance through ‘team to team’ working. Our work creates whole systems change of real depth to ensure a shared vision is realised through collective trust and ‘system savvy’ teams.
