Details
A complete framework for driving extraordinary, sustainable team transformation

Team Advantage is a proven team coaching program designed to transform teams and their leaders through a development process—one that goes beyond the typical 2-day team-building event. The program is presented as an organizational "game" oriented around a stretch goal that is meaningful to the organization's success. It includes partnership with a coach who conveys coaching skills to the team leader as they focus together on guiding the team to new awareness, new agreements, and extraordinary performance. The process includes four phases of team development that are implemented over the course of 16 weeks:
- Pre-game preparation: Coaching the team leader and interviewing each team member to set the stage for the program
- Kick-off workshop: The team creates their own game plan oriented around an extraordinary goal
- Weekly coaching sessions: Team members provide progress updates and learn to support teammates
- Review of team accomplishments and its transformation: The team takes time to assimilate learning and celebrate their wins and their new level of communication
This complete training package also includes a leader's guide for the team leader and a participant's guide for the team members.

Praise for Team Advantage

"Team Advantage is for any leader with a team and a goal. It's a proven process, with challenges and rewards, that will drive your team past typical corporate objectives to new levels of engagement and commitment. You can transform your team—and your Team Advantage."—Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager® and Leading at a Higher Level

"The outcomes of conducting a 16-game pilot project accelerated goal attainment and produced significant results, leaving a sustainable impact on team leaders and the team members by improving their collaboration, team focus and performance. Team Advantage brings action learning and management by objectives into alignment so that teams are truly transformed."—Anne Whitaker, senior vice president, International Pharmaceutical Company
