Team Coaching improves vision, creativity, organisation, communication, sharing, synergies and overcoming challenges in complex environments. Team Coaching includes but is not limited to Reflective Practice, Action Learning Sets, and methods such as Co-Development, used with small groups of professionals sharing similar roles over a period of 6 to 12 months.
Team or individual mentoring favours conversations within which questioning is used to stimulate reflection, growth and feedback is given on processes. As a mentor, I am involved in the content of a conversation as would be expected of a consultant, but I am also committed to the other person finding their own solutions.
Individual professional or career coaching gives clarity over career development, career transitions, roles and responsibilities, motivates, improves personal and professional development, provides a space for reflective practice and learning, reduces stress, increases competences and skills and enhances leadership and communication. Professional coaching supports international and humanitarian organisations' staff as well as consultants, freelancers and volunteers.
Education coaching supports teachers, school managers and education officers on leadership, team working and reflective practice issues. It contributes to personal and professional development and organisational learning. It can address stress steming from emotional demands, parents’ behaviour, low morale, conflicts in the workplace and poor communication. It can also enhance educators' engagement and connection, improve teaching creativity and learning outcomes, contribute to embedding wellbeing practices across the whole school and enable the development of a coaching culture in education institutions.
