Description
This book offers a new perspective on the subconscious and non-verbal processes through which people learn and communicate with each other in groups. Describing these processes in the context of modern organisational life, it provides practical advice about how to do group and team coaching.
Introducing key concepts from psychology, group analysis and systems theory, Group and Team Coaching gives practical guidance on core areas of group coaching: team coaching, group supervision, action learning sets and other learning groups.
Casting new light on the `secret life' of groups and teams, it discusses:
the invisible processes of group dynamics
pitfalls of group coaching and how to avoid them
how to design coaching interventions
common dilemmas
ethics and supervision
With many vignettes and case studies, Group and Team Coaching is essential reading for coaches who work with groups and teams.
