Abstract

 In this article, the author connects the dots between teams, and the broader necessity to serve and positively impact the environment within which organisations operate. Team coaching, as one of the newest and least researched team development modalities, is defined. What team coaching is NOT, and the conditions for real team coaching to take place, are unraveled, in order that it can serve a team to truly thrive. The differences between teams and groups are explored, as it is essential to the topic. The role of a team coach is distinguished and put into context, of serving a team to transform to become who they aspire to become. In this way, they can fulfil their core purpose and vision in a coherent and values aligned way. The author’s CORE model© for interpersonal team transformation is presented, which can serve as a framework to guide conversations so that they become a real team. A centre point of becoming a real team is collaboration. Real teams and thriving organisations positively impact the world in becoming a place more deserving to inhabit.
