Senior leadership teams, like other teams, need expert help in learning how to become better at working together over time. It is important not to confuse leadership team development with a range of other activities such as facilitation, consultancy, team-building, group counselling, leadership development programmes or everyone on the team receiving individual coaching.
The reason why it is not sufficient to put a team into any exercise that is aimed at leadership development is…

Most teams and individuals experience frustration and apathy soon after setting a goal. Organizations expel huge amounts of energy, time, money and ideas in the pursuit of goals that in a matter of weeks lose momentum for lack of engagement within the team. I believe that we can execute smarter when we keep the brain in mind.

I have often encountered an interesting inconsistency when working with managers who have inherited new staff or are themselves new to a team.

As adults we spend a third of our time at work, so it’s no wonder that work can have a huge impact on our mental health and wellbeing and vice versa.
