Foundations of Team
Team Coaching with a clear VMV and strategy are crucial for any team’s long-term alignment and direction. The optional two-day “Foundations of Team” workshop helps teams develop their VMV and strategy, using processes like SWOT, PEST analysis, and Jim Collins’ Hedgehog Concept to enhance performance and cohesion.
