mind

so that we focus on the needs of the team, the
organisation and the organisation’s stakeholders
as well as the coach and their individual clients.
It includes how to supervise team coaching and work
with
the wider organisation.

9. The coaching paradigm shift
From facing the person
you are coaching as your
client, to going shoulder
to shoulder with them as
your partner, jointly
facing what their world of
tomorrow is asking them
to step up to
Where coach and client
are jointly in service of
the needs of the wider
organisation and its
stakeholders
Creating not just
personal development
but shared value for
multiple stakeholders

10. New paradigm questions
Outside-in and future-back
?
What does your
world need you
to step up to,
that you are
struggling to
step up to?
Who or what is
our work in
service of?
How do we
best work
together to
create the
maximum value
for those you are
in
service of?
What
percentage of
your potential to
make a
difference in the
world are you
currently using?
What
percentage
could you be
using in a year’s
time? What do
we need to do to
traverse
the gap?

16. Supervising team coaching
(Chapter 13 in Leadership Team Coaching, Peter Hawkins, Kogan Page, 2014, 2nd Edition)
Greater
complexity
of the
system
being
supervised
Team Coach
often feels
flooded by
the data
and then
floods the
supervisor
Importance
of moving
quickly from
data to
pattern in
the team
and system
Then to
move to
what needs
to shift in the
relationship
between
team and
coach

Six levels of system view

20. Still there is a level of caricature between
Corporate Centre and Academic departments
You are anarchic
and have too many
underperforming
academics and
siloed departments:
• We need to bring
you into line and
systematise you
You are an overhead
that we pay for:
• Cost us less and
serve us better
• Less un-joined
up bureaucratic
demands

21. Client X at its worst
Top down fix
(Winners/losers)
‘Us’ and
‘Them
Joint
challenges
Talk ‘about’ not
‘with’
Resentment,
critique,
complaint
Defence and
counter blame
“Fight”
Locate the
problem and
fault in the other
• Create a policy
• Write a strategy
• Do nothing
“Suck up control”
Delegate
upwards
Assign
ownership/
accountability
to others
Events
Avoid
• Form a committee
• Create a
bureaucratic
process

22. Client X at its best
‘Com-laberation’: A virtuous cycle of intent
Create robust
‘win-win’ solution
that builds joint
confidence. “Holding
and respecting
diverse/different values”
Agreed prioritisation
of each other’s values
Shared
ambition
“Joint
challenges”
We locate the
challenge in
between us
rather than in
one or the other
Challenge our
own behaviour as
well as that of
others
We get the
right people
round the
table
Own joint
responsibility
for issue and
its solution
Get the ‘dead
elks’ onto the
table
