When the Top Team is not functioning as an integrated unit with shared objectives, then you can’t expect the rest of the organisation to be high performing. Top Teams have a special role to play in modelling the culture and expectations for the whole organisation.
Unfortunately too often this level of performance is not achieved by the team and therefore can’t be achieved by the individuals. The solution may be a combination of individual coaching, team coaching and facilitating team meetings. If you notice that the top team is not focussing on the important strategic goals and that meetings are not achieving the desired results, call ABC for a no-obligation discussion on how to achieve team cohesion and high performance.
Amanda says, “Where the team members agree to coaching, it is often best to provide different coaches, so that the leaders can be confident that their issues will remain confidential and not contaminate the coach’s work with a colleague.”
