Course overview

This intensive, highly practical module builds on the Foundation and Practitioner programmes to continue coaches’ journeys into becoming effective team coaches. It greatly enhances the coach’s toolkit and equips them to take the lead in team coaching pairs, confidently working with increasing levels of complexity to help teams strengthen all elements of the PERILL framework.

The emphasis of this programme is upon using participants’ current experience of teams they are working with as the basis for developing a broader portfolio of approaches and increasing their confidence in coping with challenging situations. A minimum of two client teams will be required for you to be actively practising during the program. This is the third of three courses within our Team Coaching Programme, with a strong emphasis on building a unique, evidence-based practice through development of both theory and practice. The programme is offered in two formats: Traditional classroom style with two three-day workshops separated by eight to ten months of practice and reflection. OR fifteen virtual modules and accompanying Practicums.

Our approach to team coaching is based upon more than 20 years of research into the factors that influence how teams adapt to increasingly complex environments. Our Foundation, Practitioner and Senior Practitioner courses are accredited by both ICF and EMCC. They incorporate the PERILL model – the only complex, adaptive system approach to understanding the factors that influence a team’s performance.
