TEAM FACILITATION
Helping teams understand each other, explore the
patterns shaping how they work together and have
the conversations that move them forward.
From team away days to focused discussions, I create
space for people to share different perspectives, work
through challenges and agree practical actions they
can take together.
Whether your team is navigating a restructure, merger
or change in leadership – or simply wants to work better
together – I help people explore what’s changing, what
they need from each other and how to move forward
together.
When Your Team Needs Help
Sometimes it’s clear that something needs to change, but less clear what’s getting in the way. Conversations go round in circles, frustrations surface indirectly or remain unspoken, and people have different expectations about how things should be done.
At other times, there may be no particular problem – you simply want to bring people together, strengthen relationships, explore how they could work even better together or find new ways to improve the service they provide.
I work with you to understand what’s happening and what you want to achieve. Where useful, this can include individual interviews, questionnaires or 360-degree feedback to hear different perspectives before we meet.
We then shape a session that gives everyone the opportunity to contribute. Through thoughtful questions, practical activities and constructive discussion, I help your team build understanding, explore possibilities and agree practical steps forward.
A format that works for your team
Sessions can be delivered face-to-face or virtually, from a focused discussion to a half-day, full-day or series of sessions. We’ll agree the format, group size and preparation around what you want to achieve, your team’s needs and your budget.
Examples of How I Can Help
Team Away Days
Giving a team time away from everyday pressures to reconnect, understand each other better and explore how they want to work together.
Agreeing Standards
Exploring the gap between the standards people agree are important and the behaviours demonstrated at work, and what it will take to close it.
Team Culture
Helping a team examine how its culture is experienced day to day, discuss different perspectives and agree the behaviours it wants to encourage or change.
Learning Together
Creating space within a wider development programme for people to share experiences, explore workplace challenges and practise new skills together.
Leadership Days
Bringing senior leaders together to reflect on their approach, explore shared challenges and consider how they can better support and develop others.
Team Development
Bringing people together to question existing ways of working, explore fresh ideas and agree improvements that put the people using their service at the centre.
What Clients Say
“After a 6 month intervention facilitated by Jo, the team have found a new rhythm for working together. The team now address their issues directly with their managers, which alone has made all the difference.”
“Jo’s engaging delivery brought a fresh and valuable approach to the session. She helped us to look at our own contribution – and impact – and what we could each do differently.”
“A huge thank you to Jo for planning and delivering the Away Day yesterday. Your focus on what we actually needed, rather than what I thought we needed, was invaluable. Your energy and resilience is admirable!”
