Rolling out team coaching to the world
Global cloud computing company
Context
The client is a global software development organisation that has been using team coaching for their internal specialist consultants in the U.S. As team coaching has been very successful there, they decided to expand the programme globally. shooksvensen has been brought in to roll out team coaching to similar teams in other countries, with an initial pilot across EMEA.
The project teams are rolling teams of three-five consultants who work with the company’s large client organisations for short periods, to help them create innovative solutions. Each consultant team comes together temporarily for a client project, then moves on to a new team for the next client project.
The problem facing the company was how to roll out this successful small, local pilot across a global organisation. shooksvensen is perfectly placed to provide a smooth solution to this complex problem.
“Shooksvensen is uniquely equipped to scale a common coaching platform while accommodating the cultural sensitivities that make having a global team so valuable.”

Ensuring support and supervision for all coaches, a quality assurance programme, and administrative support to ensure smooth running of all coaching, shooksvensen developed a detailed plan to help the company get started with a coaching project of this size and scope.
Outcome/benefits
