I created the Intelligent Teams Program as a powerful and pragmatic solution for high-performing teams of entrepreneurs, startup founders and executives. Clients come to me when they are looking to
A PROVEN APPROACH INFUSED WITH MY OWN INSIGHTS
My coaching philosophy for leadership teams is rooted in Organizational and Relationships System Coaching (ORSC), a blend of tools successfully tested for decades across different organizational growth stages.
I infuse ORSC with my own philosophy and the insights I gained "getting my hands dirty" in ventures ranging from bootstrapped startups to global corporations. I understand the pressures and opportunities you face because I've lived them.
I am your team's thinking partner, coach, and mentor, all rolled into one. My focus is to enhance the system's performance and address challenges while simultaneously positioning it to be self-sustaining when our work together is completed.
THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND INTELLIGENT TEAMS
COACH THE SYSTEM
Every team is a system - a discrete and different entity separate from its elements - that is either performing or struggling. Every system is intelligent and communicates its needs – oftentimes unbeknownst to its members. I listen to the system’s language and leverage its unique identity, opening possibilities to improve itself and maximize its potential.
COACH THE INDIVIDUAL
In addition to coaching the system, I focus on each team members’ development opportunities working with the same methodologies I use for my private 1:1 coaching clients.
FOLLOW THE CREATION PERSPECTIVE
Just like in my 1:1 coaching programs, Intelligent Teams offers a radical departure from “remedial coaching” aimed at “fixing” something. Rather than “What needs to be fixed?” the key question is “What would you love to create?”.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
DESIGNING THE TEAM ALLIANCE
I facilitate conversations to help the team decide how they want to work together, realize what makes them a great team, and plan what they are going to do if things get difficult.
CONDUCTING AND INTEGRATING INDIVIDUAL AND TEAM ASSESSMENTS
I combine my instincts and experience with the data-based personality insights of the Hogan assessments to maximize organizational success. I integrate the individual assessments into a comprehensive team report to analyze and take advantage of the team’s strengths, mitigating potential risks and tackling opportunities for development.
EXPLORING TEAM AND INDIVIDUAL VISION
You are not one company because of processes, rules and KPIs. You are one system working effectively when you share the same purpose and philosophy. We delve deep and reassert the ultimate purpose, the invisible intangible force which keeps the team together and the individuals fulfilled.
CREATING FOCUSED ACTION LEADING TO TRANSFORMATION AND GROWTH
Insights lead to growth and transformation only when there is action involved. I ensure that effective action stays at the top of the agenda.
Ultimately, the magic happens when we have a deep conversation about what you need and what I see in you and your organization, in order to create your bespoke Intelligent Teams program. I only work with five team clients per year, and that gives me the ability to tailor my process to their exact needs.
