ADVANCED TRAINING IN TEAM COACHING
Deeper Dive into Being, Sensing, and Engaging

At the heart of the Corentus Team Coaching Model are three pivotal abilities essential for any team coach aiming to make a significant impact on the teams they support:

• Being: At the core of our model, “Being” underscores the indispensable skill of maintaining self-awareness and a clear state of mind. This foundational quality enables a team coach to optimally sense and engage with a team, ensuring interactions are both meaningful and impactful.

  • Gain a profound understanding of the importance of your “being” in the team coaching chair and at all times when engaging all stakeholders within the team’s system.

  • Cultivate a heightened level of understanding of why it is essential to increase your level of self-awareness and ability to shift your state for effective sensing and engaging while team coaching.

• Sensing: Sensing focuses on the coach's capacity to accurately discern a team's current dynamics and functioning. Through keen observation and data collection in real-time, a team coach can grasp the essence of a team's interactions, challenges, and strengths, setting the stage for effective engagement as a team coach.

  • Sharpen your ability to understand a team's current dynamics through real-time observation and data gathering with models such as the Corentus O-P-N Model™.

  • Increase understanding of the importance of higher-level sensing and observation skills of a team in its current state and as it moves into its desired future state, including ways a team coach can direct a move to increase the team’s awareness of either one or both states.

  • Receive tailored feedback on your sensing and observation skills necessary for self-awareness, interpersonal awareness, and systems awareness.

  • Increase your ability to sense for the What, Why, When, Who, and How to sharpen how you engage a team during a team coaching session.

• Engaging: The skill to make real-time interventions that foster an expansion of awareness among team members individually and as a collective team. By engaging skillfully, a team coach can build a team’s capabilities, enhance cohesion among its members, and elevate the team's overall effectiveness and performance.
  

  • Apply advanced skills when preparing to engage with a team during a team coaching session, including the subtleties when using the “Entry Clause” and “Permission Clause.”

  • Learn and apply the Corentus O-P-N Model™ for thoughtful and intentional team coaching move-making.

  • Learn advanced models, methods, and techniques to make more mindful and impactful moves, such as the Corentus Six Box Move Model™.

  • Apply and receive feedback using the One Box, Multiple Box, Box Sequencing, etc.

These three core abilities—Being, Sensing, and Engaging—form a comprehensive approach for team coaches dedicated to developing high-performing teams. By cultivating these abilities, team coaches are better equipped to have a profound impact on the leadership teams they support.
