Synopsis
Much has been written about coaching individuals, yet there has been little investigation of coaching teams at work. Even in organisations that have made strides towards becoming coaching cultures, the focus has been on the individual, not the team. This failure is now a serious weakness in the abilities of managers at all levels. In this book, David Clutterbuck bridges the gap between what is known about team learning and coaching and the practical experience of managers and team coaches. He answers such questions as how team coaching differs from individual coaching, what skills underpin effective team coaching, and how team coaching can be made a sustainable, automatic process.

From the Publisher
"I thoroughly recommend Coaching the Team at Work to all those
interested in individual and organsational development, improving working
relationshipsand above all improving their own capabilities as a learning
practitioner. Clear and direct, packed with useful and practical advice on
how to develop coaching processes to ensure increased effectiveness,
whether as a coach, a manager, or a member of the board.
Coaching the Team at Work ranges across a comprehensive range of coaching
issues, from the individual to the team, from the strategic to the
operational. David Clutterbuck helps to clarify this critical area of
organisationallearning by providing a plethora of examples and mini case
studies, backedup by rigorous research."
