Executive Board and Team Coaching
Unleash your team's potential by coming together
When you are fully present, everyone can see that.
"It's an absolutely breathtaking experience. Music opened things up in a whole new way and brought surprising insights. This method should be mainstreamed."
PARTICIPANT, LEADERSHIP RENEWAL AND COOPERATION TRAINING, MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS
In my coaching full presence becomes possible.
Presence is the result of daring to relax.
The possibility of exceptional presence is due to social tools that have been tried and tested for centuries, to the African rhythm. It provides a safe framework for coming together.
Relaxation plays an important role in teamwork. It helps to release energy, and so the group's full potential can benefit everyone.
This is what my Team Coaching creates:
- a safe and experimental space where you can be yourself
- get away from the daily routine for a while
- you will be heard
- when everyone is on the same page, the work can begin
- in a useful and genuinely fun process, you become naturally engaged in what you are doing
When common direction is found - a meaningful togetherness - your transformative process can start.

What happens in Executive Board and Team Coaching?
Imagine your whole team on the same line.
You are in an intense moment of doing and being at the heart of what matters, working together.
You'll get an idea of how to do it better.
Here is a classic example of YES – AND attitude in the process of building a rhythm:
"Let's try this next... what will if we try... what if we turn it around... you try it, you seem to be doing well now... wow great, that's good! Let's go with this one, yeah!... and what else..?"
Next we stop at and clarify what has just happened (putting it into words provides a mirror for developing ideas).
Noticing the good and asking the right questions is the way forward:
- "What happened just now that allowed you to succeed?"
- "How do we get that same activity into our daily lives?"
- "In what other ways can we improve what we do together/for each other?"
As the shared experience resonates, all team members are on the same page when it comes to thinking about the best solutions.
You dare to create and try new things.
I have led hundreds of coaching processes in various forms and this - daring to create and try something new - is often the most rewarding for my clients.
The rest is history, written by you and your team.
How do you use my coaching?
Create momentum for positive change.
In a growth programme, as part of a bigger training programme or as individual interventions , you make effective use of the results of your coaching.
Experiential learning is a process of creating a shared future that matters.
The coaching provides new skills and supports the internalisation and practice of what has been learned.

How does the coaching process work?
I will target the process to serve your important and spesific issue.
Coaching starts before the first joint meeting by tuning the mindset.
For this we use either face-to-face meetings, initial questioning about the situation or activating questions.
Creating a shared space happens during the first joint meeting, which brings leaders together intellectually, emotionally and experientially.
Succesful encounter is important, because this way trust within the team can rise to a sufficient level.
We are seizing this transformative moment. Now solution-focused coaching will become more involved in the process.
Experiments in everyday life are an important part of the growth process. They are implemented with low threshold, so that information about new ideas can be shared with the whole team.
We ensure progress by aligning your coaching with your business objectives.
"A really effective way of dealing with teamwork issues."

Examples of application
For managers, experts and staff
Process of 3 - 9 months creates a positive force for change at different levels. The time between meetings will be used to deepen experiences and ideas and to experiment in everyday life. The knowledge gained from the experiments will be brought back into the common space, tested and discussed. The result is a new ways of working that generate again new perspectives. A profound process of change.

1 - 2 days of coaching use music and rhythm to open up joint working in a meaningful way. The theme and the shared experience go beyond traditional training. The coaching reinforces the implementation of results at team and organisational level, in addition to the insights of individuals.
In 2-3,5 hours of coaching session the main focus is on building a common rhythm. My experiential learning method is so effective that results can be achieved in just one meeting. The session provides a good basis for exploring the growth, progress and change required for a common goal. Suitable eg. as part of a longer change process or training programme.
This has been successfully applied in the Sitra/HAUS leadership programmes built by Renewers and Petri Virtanen among others.
My personal coaching creates links to your future. In the meetings, the starting points are Solution-Focused Coaching and techniques for Non-Violent Communication NVC.

Please note! Full participation in the coaching does not require previous experience in music.
