Individual and Team Coaching

Manfred Kets de Vries senses the primary motivations that lie deep in every leader which sometimes derail us. He tenaciously brings them to the surface and turns them into something useful. My experience with Manfred has been a major adventure of my life.

KDVI offers individual and group coaching within organizations. Both kinds of coaching may be combined to resolve personal and group issues. Individual coaching addresses interpersonal relationships, and/or personal growth, and leadership abilities. Group coaching also addresses these issues but within the context of group dynamics. Our different individual and team oriented multi-party instruments help these developmental efforts.

Team Dynamics
Team building is one of the most efficient ways to bring about enhanced team performance and cohesion through improvement in individual performance. Traditionally, a team-building exercise emphasizes issues like common goals, role expectations, and clear communication. KDVI tackles all these issues while recognizing the various psychodynamic/systemic forces that operate in teams. Our principal aim is to build trust. Trust encourages commitment and accountability, and leads to better results.

Experience has taught us that the group coaching intervention technique improves our understanding of team dynamics. We all have different styles of working and communicating. When we encounter people with styles very different from our own, we can become frustrated and fail to recognize their unique strengths. Sometimes we need help to accept the obvious—that we are all different, and that not everyone thinks like we do. The group coaching intervention technique helps us appreciate other people’s strengths and weaknesses, and to build on each other’s strengths.
