The Art & Science of Team Coaching

​In today's fast-paced world, optimizing team performance is challenging. Organizations increasingly rely on team coaches to clarify roles, establish common goals, and foster strong intra- and inter-team relationships.

While traditional approaches focus on mechanics, the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland's (GIC) The Art & Science of Team Coaching program delves deeper. Gestalt-trained coaches recognize and foster team capability to address subtle relationship dynamics crucial to team success. They view teams holistically, understanding the interconnectedness of relationships, structures, and processes.

The art & science of team coaching
(formerly named: Relational Team Coaching)

This program is ideally suited for:

  • 1:1 Coaches that want to attract teams and groups as clients

  • Current team coaches, facilitators and HR professionals that want to go much deeper with teams and groups to have lasting impact and beautiful collaborations

  • Agile Team Leads, Agile Coaches, SCRUM masters and other cross functional and project oriented work teams

Gestalt Team coaching enables you to see, recognize and intervene on team dynamics that the team and other coaches simply don’t see – or know what to do with.

For teams — whether leadership, functional, multi-disciplinary, operational, agile, or project teams — to be productive, they must operate at higher levels of complexity, adaptability, and flexibility than ever before. As coaches, we have a unique opportunity to partner with the team and employ specialized knowledge and skills to:

  • Cultivate the key elements that enable teams to operate at their peak: clarity of purpose and ways of working, trust, collaboration, learning, and conflict resolution

  • Offer system based and “here and now” coaching that supports the team becoming highly functional and cohesive

  • Assess how a team can improve while understanding the impact of the team’s environment

  • Strengthen the team’s dynamics and collaboration, while managing multiple stakeholders

This six-day experiential workshop provides the foundations for the practice of team coaching and introduces the participant to core skills and tools to support your practice of team coaching. We will combine Gestalt group methods, as well as practices based on the latest developments in team coaching and team effectiveness research, providing participants the basics for coaching intact work teams in their “natural environment.”
