John Leary-Joyce AoEC, in partnership with Peter Hawkins, Bath Consultancy Group are at the leading edge in developing a distinctive, comprehensive and effective methodology for team coaching.

Our model has a complex systemic approach that focuses on six levels:

  1. Individual and their team role
  2. Interpersonal relationships
  3. Team Dynamics
  4. Team’s Task, Function & Intent
  5. Stakeholder Interface
  6. Wider Organisational Context

Getting all these elements functioning effectively and in balance harnesses the power of the team within the organisational system.

Systemic Team Coaching Master Practitioner Diploma and Senior Practitioner Diploma

The Systemic Team Coach training programme (STC) is for experienced coaches seeking to develop and expand their team coaching competence and practice and gain a recognised professional qualification.

Peter & John have combined expertise to provide an exciting, experiential programme where you will:

Systemic Team Coaching Master Practitioner Diploma

The Master Practitioner Diploma  is run in conjunction with the Senior Practitioner Diploma programme and includes external organistional clients who will be provided but the AoEC as practice teams. On and between modules Supervision will be available.

Systemic Team Coaching Senior Practitioner Diploma
The Senior Practitioner Diploma is run in conjunction with the Master Practitioner Diploma but the focus is on the theoretical perspective in relation to practice.

Nearly all activities are undertaken with the Master Practitioner group, however there is one major exception, Senior Practitioner participants:

2.    Don’t have supervision

3.    Don’t submit a client case study in the assessment

 Systemic Team Coaching Master Practitioner Diploma - will meet ICF 125 hrs of coach training requirements at PCC level.

Systemic Team Coaching Senior Practitioner Diploma- is 90 hrs of coach training that can be used towards PCC accreditation. 

Academically both programme will be Masters level.

For Client Organisations seeking Team Coaching

This is a unique opportunity to engage a team of experienced individual coaches from this Team Coaching programme to work in your organisation, free of a coaching fee.

A team of 2 - 3 coaches will be assigned to your organisation to work with a team regularly over a one-year period under the close supervision of two renowned experts in the field John Leary-Joyce and Peter Hawkins.

This is a powerful and effective process that will enhance the performance of individual members, the leader and the team as a whole as well as impacting the immediate business and wider organisation.

Team Coaching Interventions

Following our Systemic Team Coaching model there will be three levels of active intervention by AoEC team coaches

  1. Individual coaching – 2 hrs monthly addressing leadership & team membership
  2. Team facilitation of management/business meetings - average monthly
  3. Team Development away-days to improve collective leadership and interpersonal dynamics - average 2 days twice in the year.

In addition, consulting with primary stakeholders will be undertaken to understand the wider systemic context.

To get a clearer picture of the team dynamics in relation to the wider system the team will be expected to take part in all or one of the following:

  1. 360 degree feedback
  2. Team profiling tool
  3. Sociomapping tool.

This would be done at the beginning and end so that data is available for measuring the effectiveness of the intervention.

Costs

Because this is a ‘work placement’ assignment for the programme participants the cost will not include coach fees but simply cover basic expenses such as travel, accommodation and supervision. This we would estimate to be in the region of £5 - £20k for the year depending on location and represents about 10% of the cost of this type of intervention.

In addition, any external 360 feedback or team profiling tool would be charged to the organisation.

Team Coach capabilities

The team coaches will have substantial knowledge and experience of developing people. They will be an experienced individual coach with at least 4 years practice having completed either training equivalent to PCC (ICF) Practitioner Level (EMCC) or be a consultant with a 10-year career in OD with extensive coaching experience.

They have joined this programme to deepen their experience and capability of working as a team coach. Academically the programme will be Masters level.

The biographies of each team coach assigned to your organisation will be provided well in advance and discussed with the relevant internal manager responsible for the project.

There will be close liaison between the AoEC faculty/supervisors and the internal sponsors of the initiative.

The members of the coaching team will themselves be actively working at a sophisticated level as a team under supervision and exchanging information about how best to serve the team and the business objectives.

Written Research Project

This team project will be the basis of the participants’ assessment and so permission to use the data for this purpose will be required.

In addition some participants may wish to publish the process and outcomes of their work as a research dissertation so we would expect permission to be granted provided professional protocols were observed.

Requirements of the Organisation

For an organisation to be eligible to take part in this opportunity they must have a number of prerequisites in place:

  1. Intact team with objectives and direction as well as the autonomy to implement changes within its jurisdiction
  2. The senior management supports the team coaching initiative
  3. Team size of between 5 and 10 members
  4. Expectation that the team will remain as constructed for the year with minimal changes in membership
  5. Team members willing to engage in individual coaching
  6. Team members willing to undertake various individual/team profiling tools & 360 feedback
