Groups and Teams

 

There are two types of ‘group work’.

• Focused on teaching and providing information on psychology, teaching new skills etc.

• Focused on change within the group during the sessions, e.g. helping team members understand each other, improve communication, and improve dynamics to improve performance etc.

 

There are many areas where I can be of use, some examples are included below.

 

Teaching and Providing Information (examples)

• Sessions to help participants understand ourselves as humans, our functioning etc.

• How coaches can increase understanding of players / athletes

• Assertiveness training

• Mindfulness to help focus at critical times

• Emotion Regulation

 

Enabling Changes within the Session (examples)

• Understanding of group dynamics to help communication and cohesion in a team

• Emotional regulation and interpersonal management. Helping people understand emotions, how to manage them and then deal with situations that have led to the difficult emotions

• Visualisation

• Communication skills

 

To help Managers and Coaches manage People (examples)

• Supervision to coaches / managers to help understand team dynamics, systemic issues to help improve team functioning. Supervision provides a structured 'space' to uncover the difficulties that hinder performance

• Helping coaches / managers understand athletes / individuals to aid their interaction, e.g. why some people follow suggestions and others don't

• Help adapt training plans / daily routines to maximise people's potential.

• Adapt communication to increase people's learning
