Deze opleiding Kickstart Team Coaching is ideaal voor:

Entrepreneurs, managers, and project leaders at all levels who want to leverage the power of Team Coaching to develop people, deepen collaboration and help their team grow into a source of sustainable results.

Why choose the Kickstart Team Coaching?

Many teams encounter challenges: communication issues, clashing personalities, hybrid working, and more. However, these are not obstacles, they are opportunities to grow. By transforming frustrations into open dialogue, clarifying intentions, and fostering psychological safety, you create an environment where motivation, engagement, and creativity naturally emerge. Every team has a source of strength and potential— with the right approach, you can turn obstacles into levers for collaboration, innovation and sustainable results.

Learn to lead without pushing or pulling. Discover the power of “understanding” rather than “intervening” and unlock your team’s hidden growth potential! Whether you lead a team yourself or coach leaders, this training helps you better understand their challenges and support them with greater impact.

Throughout the program, you will work with your own cases. Theory and practice alternate, with ample space for reflection, experimentation and integration.

What is Team Coaching? 

Team coaching is a powerful catalyst that helps teams excel and organisations thrive. It goes beyond solving challenges or improving processes; it is a process of awareness in which teams discover and unleash their unique potential. We believe true transformation begins with awareness. We create a safe context where openness, trust, and respect are central, making everything open for discussion. By uncovering underlying patterns and dynamics, we enable teams to address sensitive topics constructively.

This safe space forms the foundation for deep conversations and sustainable change. It allows teams to reflect honestly, transform tensions into opportunities, and collaboratively build better collaboration, stronger relationships, and higher performance. What becomes discussable becomes workable—and that is the key to lasting impact.

Every team is a living ecosystem. We therefore view the team not as a collection of individuals but as a dynamic, self-learning whole. Our approach goes beyond symptom management, working on deeper layers when necessary. By applying team coaching not only curatively but also proactively, team development becomes a strategic investment. It prevents problems, promotes sustainability, and helps teams not only respond to challenges but also actively seize opportunities and consistently excel in an ever-changing environment.

Clients' Testimony

fallback image

After much deliberation, I finally decided to sharpen my coaching skills and enrolled in the Kickstart Teamcoachingprogram, guided by Dorothée.

I’ll admit I was quite skeptical and critical before starting, but after just a few sessions, those concerns completely disappeared. The quality of the program and the insights shared were truly eye-opening. I immediately applied the techniques with my own team members and — to my great surprise (though probably not to Dorothée’s) — I received completely different feedback and attitudes from them.

It’s phenomenal to see how powerful the right questions...

As the owner of an SME in the construction sector, the well-being of my employees — both workers and office staff — is essential. They are happiest when agreements are clear and they have a well-structured workday. It’s also important that roles and responsibilities are clearly defined and that communication within the team is well aligned.

Through directly applicable methods, I learned how to achieve my desired goals and make my meetings with my team more results-oriented. It was also very interesting to gain insight into the underlying dynamics within a team and to learn how to deal with them...
