What is team spirit? What is the spirit of the team? What is this intangible element which brings people together and keeps them motivated?
It is first of all a mindset, a way of being which places interactions between people at the centre of the organization. This requires encouraging authenticity both at the personal level and at the level of the organization. For instance, rather than avoiding tensions and conflicts, we welcome their emergence because they are an indicator of underlying issues that need to be looked after. This also means encouraging initiative, creativity and collective intelligence in order to support the emergence of new ideas. All of this contributes to improving the manner in which the project is executed, and the way it is experienced by people.
Through coaching, working on self confidence and trust, as well as other approaches geared towards openness and self awareness, we propose to instill this elusive quality which makes a group of people into an exceptional team
