Team Facilitation

 

 

At times, the best intentioned teams can become stuck or run into difficulties.

​

All groups have an inner life which also needs attention.

​

Tensions, paradoxes, conflicts, jealousies & misalignments are not uncommon in a work context. Unhelpful patterns of communication can become easily stuck and complex power relationships can erode trust & safety.

​

​

A healthy well-functioning team has the capability to not only focus on their 'output' & productivity but also on how they are engaging in their relationships and the collective task.

​

 Effective teams notice unhelpful patterns early & attend to them skilfully.

A challenge for an internal facilitator is having enough neutrality, insight & skill to recognise they may also be contributing to such patterns unintentionally.

A neutral external facilitator can play a vital role in helping such teams become more reflexive and self-organising.

​

​

We offer facilitation for teams who may want to make sense of tensions or incoherences, address unhelpful patterns & behaviours or for those simply wanting to access a safe neutral space where issues can be aired, explored and more productive actions agreed.

​

​

Examples of areas our facilitators can help with are:

​

Team disengagement

Conflict

'Stuckness'

Dysfunctional communication patterns

Fear of speaking up

Misunderstandings & mistrust

Mismatches between what is said & done

Poor motivation
