Why could you need team coaching ?
- When team performance needs to be improved. In business like in sports, a team should be more than the sum of each individual’s talents. Being successful as a team is not a luxury but a condition for success
- When trust needs to be established or strenghtened amongst team members
- When a team is multicultural : eg different nationalities, or after a merger or an acquisition
- When the team needs the interaction with a third party, who can help reflect on how to improve performance
