The Team Coaching Questionnaire.

A questionnaire is independently submitted by all team members (including the team leader) and builds a picture of the stronger and weaker areas of performance.

Highlighting any disparity of views within the team, the findings are used alongside other data to enable the team to identify developmental priorities that will result in higher performance.

The team coaching process and its associated questionnaire illustrate a moment in time. By using two or more iterations, we can measure progress against identified performance targets and demonstrate movement towards these goals.

Benefits of Team Coaching.

Acorn’s input reduces the time needed to create a high performing team. All team members take responsibility for the collective achievements and teams are united on a shared purpose, fostering genuine commitment and confidence through clear expectations.

It promotes the team to focus on more strategic and long-term goals versus simply fire-fighting; business objectives are clarified ensuring consistency and team unity.

The coaching increases personal and team awareness of where and how to make a greater contribution – team performance is measured, enabling progressive improvement.
