A key corporate benefit of team and group coaching is the high levels of engagement that it can generate from staff. It can also help build team spirit and resilience: a quality never more needed in today’s world with its VUCA environment – volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous.
Team and group coaching presents a different dynamic to working with an individual. Each person needs to be heard. Disagreement needs to be constructively handled. Consensus and commitment need to be built. The most significant barrier that inhibits performance is human to doubt. In a group situation, doubt is contagious, and as it grips, it deepens.
Beverly is a certified Systemic Team Coach, having qualified with the Academy of Executive Coaches. "Systemic Team Coaching is a process by which a team coach works in partnership with a whole team, in both when they are together and when they are apart, to help them both improve their collective performance and how they work together, and also how they develop their collective leadership to more effectively engage with all their key stakeholder groups to jointly transform the more extensive business and co-create value for all their stakeholders." (Hawkins, 2011 & 2014)

Change management is a structured approach for ensuring that changes are thoroughly and smoothly implemented, and that the lasting benefits of change are achieved. For this to happen it is essential to provide dedicated space for management and their teams to explore issues, consider possibilities and work through the consequences and impact of their options before applying them in everyday life. Strategy and change workshops facilitated by Beverly are focused on achieving this objective.
Run over half a day, these workshops allow people to experience the power of thinking without the interruptions of technology or the distractions of other demands on their attention.

“Following the presentation coaching you gave me last year, the people that run the event have asked me to chair this year’s event. They said I had good stage presence and came across as engaging and with confidence. My confidence in public speaking since working with you has been night and day. I have done a lot more speaking internally and externally and have only been a ‘normal’ level of nervous. So I wanted to say a really big thank you and share my progress. I’d recommend you to anyone needing to hone their personal impact and presentations skills.”
