Team Coaching

Let’s be honest these days, most executive teams face unprecedented levels of complexity, stress and change and it can be both exhausting and frustrating.

Leaders nowadays have many identities, sit on many teams and cross-functional projects. They have to perform and transform a business in parallel: Very often they do not see themselves as a team.

Despite this polarities and pressure, organisations still have huge expectations around performance and results. That’s why we see a great deal of burnout.

Transformation and culture change requires time to think and yet there is never enough time. Ironically most of the research shows that high performance only occurs if teams prioritize that time together. Time to connect, build trust, think strategically, have difficult conversations and take action.

So how do you spend that time together? It has to be more than energizers and building pasta towers.

Talking Ape executive team coaching helps teams get clarity on the four building blocks of high performance.

Albert Einstein’s famous quote “you cannot solve a problem with the same mind that created it” has never been more accurate in teams today. Senior teams need to challenge themselves to think systemically. They need to balance working in the system as well as working on the system. The research is clear. To achieve this requires a change in mindset and not just adopting new behaviours. Teams need to upgrade to a new operating system that allows them to be present and to know how to move forward in complexity, bringing the rest of the organisation with them.
