Relationship Coaching
For Teams, Partners and Work Relationships
Useful tools for working well together
- Are you a member of a team that’s not sure what being a team really means?
- Are you part of a group with a shared purpose that could use some tools for understanding and getting in sync with each other?
- Is your team in the midst of an overwhelming challenge?
- Are negativity and lack of focus hijacking your working group?
- Do you sometimes feel like you and your partners are speaking completely different languages?
Despite all the many ways we talk about teams and team-work, despite all the team building sessions and trainings, despite all of our really good intentions to work well together as a team, doesn’t it sometimes feel that we are still a group of people pulling in different directions? Or perhaps we’re mostly on board together but not quite or not everyone or not as we know we can be.
Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC) offers our working relationships effective tools and perspectives for significantly improving our understanding of each other and our system, and our ability to achieve our desired goals.
Some of the ways relationship coaching for teams can help build a true and practical sense of working together include getting past toxic communication styles, recognizing and avoiding silo-ing or being stuck in a narrow part of the organization, offering new ways of approaching conflict, understanding the various aspects or voices of the system, improving positivity and productivity, recognizing the impact of change on the team, developing action plans the whole team can embrace, and getting out of old patterns that no longer serve the team. Each team has its own relationship needs, so we design a coaching program that will best suit yours.
Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching has much to offer family businesses and entrepreneurial partnerships as well as corporate teams and non-profit organizations. Whether your team is overwhelmed by the scope of the task before you or confused by the mingling of personal and work issues, whether you’ve been together for years or are just now moving into team-ship, whether you’ve got tons of team training or none at all, relationship coaching will give you a new understanding of how to successfully be together.
Because relationship coaching – coaching that focuses on what relationships create together – is a new way of supporting teams, you are likely to have questions about it or want to know more.
