Group & Team Coaching
Creating a safe and confidential space for participants to achieve their best selves, connect with others, and find a sense of community by supporting each other.
In both group and team coaching, the focus is on creating a safe and confidential space for participants to open up, and share their thoughts, feelings, and ideas with one another.
What is the difference between Group & Team Coaching?
Group and team coaching are similar in many ways. The key difference is in the target audience, and the purpose that brings the group or team together.
In both cases, and as your coach, I help you create a safe space where mutual trust and sharing can take place, so that new awareness, insights, and experiences can be made that can aid in the participants’ onward journey.
While some facilitation, and mentoring or training may be involved, the bulk of the session is focused on coaching the group/team – whereby I hold the space for the group to have the conversation it needs to have to be able to move each other and themselves forward.
In group coaching, we explore a pre-defined theme within a small group over a set period of time. Participants typically do not know each other, but all share an interest in exploring and exchanging around the theme at hand. Themes may include: Career transitions, Coaching skills for managers, Burnout, Loss/grief, Search for meaning.
In team coaching, I work with organisational, project, cross-functional, and/or intact teams. Using Gallup’s CliftonStrengths online assessment tool, I specialise in Strengths-based Team Development Coaching, so that teams recognise, own, and leverage the diverse strengths within their team for the benefit of their own team’s performance and wider organisational impact. Team sessions are always bespoke to fit your team’s specific situation and needs.
Group Coaching
Providing you with community support, as you embark on your change journey.
For anyone looking for a sense of community,
wanting to explore a topic or embark on a journey in the warm presence and support of others.
Areas of focus & programmes
I tend to run group coaching sessions around the following themes:
- Career transitions
- Coaching skills for managers
- Burnout
- Loss/grief
- Search for Meaning
Group coaching sessions may follow one of two formats:
- A one-off online workshop, typically of 4 hours, which tackles a particular subject. An individual follow-up coaching session with me, your coach, could be organised if need be.
- An online program of 4-6 months, whereby a stable group meets at a regular interval to follow-up on each other’s progress, successes and learnings over the course of 4 to 6 months. An individual follow-up coaching session with me, your coach, is usually included as well.
Current workshops and programmes are listed below.
If you have a particular topic that interests you which is not listed, please write to me via the Contact form or via email, and I will be happy to look into it.
Please check out my upcoming group coaching events below for a detailed description of the events and pricing.
Differentiated pricing
I differentiate my pricing between corporate clients (paying market rate), private clients paying out of pocket, and non-governmental organisations.
Additional fees may apply to above rates depending on customer requests, for e.g., commuting fees, document review fees, working outside of my regular working hours, etc. These would always be defined and agreed with client prior to the session.
Can’t afford my rates?
My intention is to enable all who want to, to be able to benefit from my coaching services, regardless of financial situation, whilst also making it sustainable for me to offer my services. As such, if you are in financial difficulty and/or earn a modest income, please get in touch with me via email to discuss alternatives.
Upon mutual agreement, and subject to my own availability and financial situation, some of these alternatives may include:
- If you earn a modest income, we may be able to find a price that makes sense and keeps both of our hearts open.
- If you are currently having a challenging period financially, we could agree an individualised payment plan.
- I am also open to brainstorming other ways you can contribute – a type of “barter” service 🙂 – should this be appropriate.
Money should not be a barrier for someone to receive quality coaching. So, if you can’t afford my rates but would like to work with me, reach out!

CliftonStrengths Team Coaching
Improve your team’s performance by harnessing each member’s natural talents and strengths.
In team coaching, I work with organisational, project, cross-functional, and/or intact teams.
Using Gallup’s CliftonStrengths online assessment tool, I specialise in Strengths-based Team Development Coaching, so that teams recognise, own, and leverage the diverse strengths within their team for the benefit of their own team’s performance and wider organisational impact. Team sessions are always bespoke to fit your team’s specific situation and needs.
I specialise in Strengths-based Team Development Coaching and work with organisational project, cross-functional and intact teams.
My team strengths coaching offerings are always bespoke, and tailored to fit your team’s specific situation and needs. Having said that, I am often asked about what a “possible scenario” could look like – so here it is.
Possible scenario / Strengths-based Team Development Coaching:
- The process always starts with a briefing with the team leader, and if needed the sponsor, to understand the team’s context and goal of coaching intervention. This is also when we assess if a strengths-based team coaching is the right intervention for the team.
- Based on the briefing, a bespoke coaching package proposal is made for the leader to review and share with his/her team members to get buy-in from them that they are willing to take that journey. If need be, the coach may be invited to a team session, to answer any questions or concerns the team may have.
- Every team member, including leader, take the CliftonStrengths assessment online.
- In an ideal world, this is followed by a 1:1 coaching session for each team member, incl. leader, where we explore the person’s individual report in depth, to make sure they fully understand and own the results of their report. This is a crucial step in my view to ensure psychological safety and a smooth running of the team workshops later on.
- If, for some reason, 1:1 sessions are not possible, we would hold group Q&A sessions instead where members can ask questions about their themes and test results.
- Once the 1:1 / Q&A sessions have taken place, the team workshop(s) can take place. The length, frequency and specific content of these is always very different depending on the team’s size, context and goals.
If you wish to learn more about my strengths team coaching work, and if I’m the right coach for you, please write me via the Contact form or via e-mail. I look forward to connecting with you.
Pricing upon request
- Team strengths workshops, using CliftonStrengths assessment, can range from a 2-hour teaser session to a multi-day intervention – depending on your needs and where you are at on your strengths journey.
- Let’s have a chat to understand your needs, timeframe, and how I can support you best.

- 6 group online sessions (3 hours each)
- 3 individual coaching sessions (60 minutes each)
- A maximum of 8 participants per cohort
- Reading materials, and other relevant resources
