Recent studies show that people have less resistance and more confidence to talk over the phone than during a live interview, when interviewed by a skilled telecoach. TeleCoaching, even more than any other form of live coaching, is structured by the quality of the questions of the coach. The coach asks questions in such way that the participant will be guided through a process of more clearly defining SMART goals, choosing the right competence, actions and behaviors according to this goal-attainment, and developing a concrete action plan, followed by exercises, home work and actions stimulated by your coach. Coachteam developed a coaching model for distance coaching, assisted by some online tools, which enable the coach and the participant to see the same results online simultaneously during their teleconferencing by telephone and possibly by web cam.

CEO's and Top-executives create a tremendous leverage on the performance and survival of their organization. In a monthly 4 hour workshop the executive will improve the quality of his business planning process and acquire new competence to transform his organization into a self-organizing system, realizing strategic goals and business plans through bottom-up self-managing teams. As a result top executives create more free time for strategic long term thinking. Jim Collins discovered in his latest book that "Good to Great" companies are lead by 'Level 5 leaders'. Coachteam created a "Level 5" Competence Grid © and specific coaching program for developing Level 5 attitude and behavior for senior executives.

Talent grows with focus. Focusing on your talents with your coach helps you develop new habits: Habits are the consistent and spontaneous execution of new behavior constantly over time. We offer you the development of this ability with fast and permanent results.

Several studies administered by ROI-Guru Jack Phillips demonstrate extremely high return on Investment of professional coaching programs delivered by an external professional coach. Nortel  networks recently presented a ROI of 788% at the ASTD conference in June 2002. Most other publications using the Jack Phillips methodology show similar or higher ROI's for one-on-one  coaching with a external coach.

Since Coachteam chose not to step into the fun-business but to focus on measurable financial results , we will first coach the team Leader to coach his team. This is what we call second order coaching. Real change and learning only occurs when coming from within, using their intrinsic motivation!  We will always first start with individual coaching, empowering the team leader to create the desired change, and only then we will supplement his efforts with direct external coaching towards the team. This implies that the team has already observed positive effects of change before we arrive, and as a consequence, buy-in of team coaching is assured before starting!

Personal Competence Coaching leert de individuele medewerker een persoonlijke competentieontwikkeling uit te bouwen om zijn toegevoegde waarde aan het bedrijf én zijn persoonlijke marktwaarde te vergroten.
Om competenties om te zetten tot vruchtbare resultaten moet een balans gevonden worden tussen Competence Coaching over de tijd heen en een goed prioriteiten management en time management op korte termijn. Daarom ontwikkelde Coachteam het concept Personal Competence Coaching. waar deelnemers hun eigen oplossingsgerichte succesplanning opstellen en uitvoeren. Deze ‘Personal Competence Manager’ omvat een gestructureerd systeem om strategische doelstellingen om te zetten in een dagelijks werkplan, gekoppeld aan een progressieve ontwikkeling van individuele kerncompetenties.
