Why Targeted Team Coaching™ ?

You’re trying to up performance, but your crew already feels overworked and overextended from Pandemic stress.

Without support, team members can feel isolated and disconnected.

Many are frustrated by all the new controls put in place to make sure everyone really is doing their work from home. Your possible picture for the future is even more out of focus now because it depends on a complex set of economic, social, cultural and political factors beyond your control.

Distance Bias is Real

Plus, distance bias is real- the farther away you are from action, the more others have a blurred focus of you and you have a blurred focus of what’s going on. You want to be in the room where it happens.

So how do you create a compelling vision for the future from all this fragmentation?

First, you don’t build on the past to create the future. You start with the future you want to create and work backwards. You want more energy, more engagement and more ideas for serving your customer. You want an organization where everyone is a leader and wants a mission that inspires them.

Where is the best place to apply your resources for change?

It’s time to quit spinning your wheels caught in the daily grind of doing the same things and getting similar results. By trying on new skills, practices and tools to address workplace and customer challenges, you learn what works to get your desired results. As your coach, I get directly in the dirt with you and your team. My job is to help the team build a new bridge as they walk on it.

My company, Bridges in Organizations, offers Targeted Team Coaching™ and capacity building programs to respond to current organizational demands. Targeted Team Coaching™ is unique because we focus on three powerful proponents of team performance: leadership, mindfulness and inclusion. When these elements stand tall on a team, they build a foundation of outsized impact on performance. A team becomes more resilient and manages more capacity with less stress. 

Why Leadership, Mindfulness and Inclusion?

Leadership is the ability each person has to create the future out of the choices they make. Mindfulness is also about choice. At the simplest level, it’s about where you choose to put your energy and attention so that you can respond to the needs of the moment. Inclusion is about creating an environment of safety, connection, and respect so that everyone thrives. You make everyone feel welcomed and invited to the party, so they feel they belong.   

For over 30 years, Bridges has built expertise in these 3 areas of leadership, mindfulness and inclusion.   We take a whole-person approach to development- language, body, emotions and team spirit. We partner with teams and organizations to offer solutions that become steeped into everyday practice so change is long-lasting and systemic. 

Coaching engagements are 3- 6 months in length. There are three phases to every engagement:

Phase One: Discovery 

•     Partnering with the client and the team
•      Administering the first Targeted Team Scorecard™
•      Working with coach to complete the Goals and Priorities Assessment
•      Developing the vision and the Game Plan
•     Creating team agreements for how best to work the program

Phase Two: Following the Game Plan

•       Responding to real Issues as they arise
•       Applying new tools and practices to real issues and challenges
•       Focusing on high priority changes as identified in the goals during the Discovery Phase 

Phase Three: Measuring the Impact

•       Assessing of the results of the Targeted Team Scorecard™ over time
•       Team completes and after=action review of progress and results
•       Individual and team evaluations of the program

How will we know teams are making progress and seeing results?

The Targeted Team Scorecard™ is an integral part of our 3-6 month coaching engagements. Based on the results of the Targeted Team Scorecard™, we develop goals and a game plan for your team. The digital Scorecard is not a tracking or monitoring tool. Yes, it does that. But its purpose is to shape and motivate performance. We know that when progress is visible, it stirs motivation. And, social incentive is a powerful driver of behavior change. The digital Scorecard becomes a tool that socializes performance, strengthens focus, and promotes momentum on the team.
