Looking for growth and enhanced collaboration?
Looking for growth and enhanced team collaboration? You won’t need to look far for the expertise needed.
Every member of your team has a wealth of knowledge and experience that could benefit the group. Often mentoring and coaching are led from the top, but peer coaching is a valuable model that can strengthen relationships and enhance communication and collaboration. At its core it is about reciprocal learning, with each expert within the team sharing their knowledge, whilst also learning from others.
Effective leaders are aware that they do not have all the answers, and that they, as well as their team, are on a continuous learning journey. Providing opportunities for members of the team to meet for shared learning is a powerful way to promote mutual respect and positive working partnerships. The process also allows for genuine, meaningful collaboration.
Identifying what each person needs or aspires to is the first step in making the peer coaching connections within the team.
