Abstract:
Abstract We begin the second part of the book by moving on to consider how your coaching skills can be applied to working with teams as well as individuals. Bigger thinking thrives in cultures where people come together — one plus one really does equal three and the whole adds up to more than the sum of the parts. Creating this kind of culture with your team starts with the belief that bigger thinking adds value and that more than one brain creates better bigger thinking. We consider with you: What bigger thinking is, where the need for bigger thinking comes from and the relationship of bigger thinking with a culture of idea generation, exploring with you all that building such a culture entails. The need for a code of conduct to establish behavioural guidelines for teams who want to generate ideas, as well as the list of ingredients necessary for effective teamwork in general. What makes up a team dynamic that supports idea generation, and we provide troubleshooting tips and tools to help you overcome barriers to establishing a favourable dynamic, including a model for managing conflict in teams.
