Highly motivated teams also achieve ambitious goals
Healthy teams achieve more! Disagreements and conflicts are almost always caused by poor communication and misunderstandings. Team development resolves disagreements and makes your team fit again!
Target group: Teams
Why team development?
Wherever people work together, there are always misunderstandings, grievances and disputes. Conflicts can severely impair team performance in teams where good cooperation is THE number one success factor. Sometimes, these conflicts are so deep-seated that those involved cannot resolve them without outside help. Team development provides valuable help here.
What happens there?
All team members take time to develop a common path to helpful cooperation. To ensure this is successful, we will work out a suitable schedule for the team, depending on the current team situation.
Sometimes, this is classic coaching, where each team member can explain their position and needs in a safe, confidential, and respectful environment. We protect against verbal abuse and help take joint steps towards understanding each other. To this end, we primarily use solution-focused questioning techniques and interventions and strive for a consensus at the end – i.e., a result that can be supported by all those involved.
A facilitated workshop on “Optimal teamwork” is often a good idea. This is particularly true if not all team members are convinced of existing difficulties. The participants then identify the milestones for successful teamwork, and concrete steps are worked out to achieve them. In the process, the participants get to know each other better and from a new perspective, and mutual appreciation increases.
We intersperse short theoretical inputs from time to time. Primarily when a damaging and offensive form of communication manifested itself in the team. In this way, team members learn what effect their way of communicating has on others. Team exercises also help to achieve greater mutual understanding and a common language.
When do you need external coaches?
Many companies have trained coaches among their employees. Personnel development professionals, in particular, and many managers today have sound coaching training. Use these resources if you have them in-house!
Please seek external help if
- you do not have a trained coach in the company who would like to take on the task at hand
- the responsible manager or this coach cannot stand behind each team member impartially
- the task is too delicate for you for whatever reason
- you would like to see how we work
- you would like to discuss possible options with us
We are always happy to help you and your team and look forward to your inquiry about solution-focused team development!
