The few empirical studies that have been conducted on team coaching have been focused on the healthcare and innovation sphere, which are two areas in which the task tends to be clearly defined. Therefore, more insights are needed on whether these competencies (and team coaching at large) are useful in other organizational settings, such as cor

Future Directions The need for more empirical research to solidify the team coaching approach has been previously remarked [ 2 ] yet needs to be reiterated. However, advancements are being made, and more recent research has attempted to be more descriptive and transparent in their approaches (e.g., [ 31 ]). To continue streamlining the literature, researchers should make their approach transparent (i.e., describing whether they are takin

Moreover, in reviewing the team coaching literature, few authors discussed why they undertook an internal vs. an external team coaching approach. We encourage authors to include this debate in their research, which can help organizations understand when one might be needed over the other. As brought up by the reviewers of this paper, an especially useful empirical lens would be to undertake a comparative

On top of this, and as remarked by this paper’s reviewers, there has been a complete dearth of research focusing on team coaching across cultures, with some exceptions (e.g., [ 74 ]). Therefore, a clear research need involves understanding how these competencies show up across cultures, such as “initiating structure” and potential differences among vertical vs.

Conclusions This paper presents a unique perspective on team coaching, viewing it as an internal leadership approach. Individuals can effectively lead their teams by establishing a structure that allows autonomy and support, maintaining interpersonal sensitivity, and fostering open dialogue. Additionally, we propose that internal team coaches can enhance team performance by organizing information, facilitating information

its inability to define team coaching itself—making it difficult to solidify its place in the world of team science. So far, there is no consensus on what specific training would serve internal leaders best, and how they would connect to the team coaching literature. We know leadership and team training are effective in improving organizational outcomes, but the gap in the literature lies in identifying what specific competencies internal team coaches need, and what training could fulfill these.

ches need, and what training could fulfill these. In this piece, we seek to (1) identify what competencies internal team leaders need based on the outcomes we know team coaching yields, (2) identify specific behaviors that can fulfill these competencies, and (3) integrate the literature to form an evidence-based guide on what training to provide to internal team coaches. By doing so, we hope to provide a definitive understanding of what internal team coaches need to be successful.

Introduction Collaboration demands have surged by over 50% in recent years [ 1 ]—underpinning a clear need for effective teamwork. However, as organizations continue to require and seek out “team players”, many have erred in assuming that teamwork is an inherent skill [ 2 ].

Executive coaching uses questioning to help clients unlock their professional potential and has gained substantial traction in the organizational world, generating nearly USD 3 bill

Altogether, these three processes can improve team performance [ 2 ]. As conceptualized by Hackman and Wageman [ 9 ] and supported by the literature, team coaching can be effectively carried out by an internal team leader [ 13 ]. This approach differs from executive coaching, where typically, an external consultant is hired to develop one individual at a time [ 14 ].

hired to develop one individual at a time [ 14 ]. The benefits of using an internal team leader as an internal team coach (known as the leader-behavioral approach) are particularly valuable for certain teams, such as those who have well-defined boundaries (e.g., the task is clearly defined) and teams that are more “compact” (e.g., on the smaller side, 4~10 members). The use of internal team coaches can eliminate the need for later external intervention.

iminate the need for later external intervention. On top of this, internal coaches can bring a wealth of task-related knowledge that makes them highly attuned to the team’s dynamic [ 2 ]. For example, a surgeon who operates as an internal team coach knows their team’s weaknesses and strengths simply by working with them rather than having to observe them, and they understand the technicalities involved in the shared goal of a successful surgical procedure.

Yet, on top of this, team coaching has not been extensively studied empirically, with some exceptions (e.g., [ 13 ]). Given that external coaches usually undergo extensive certifications and training to perform their work [ 14 ], it is difficult to recommend the use of internal team coaches without first understanding what competencies th

Therefore, to continue strengthening the team coaching literature, this paper seeks to identify what competencies internal team coaches need based on the outcomes we know team coaching yields—from increasing group effort to improving interpersonal processes to improving team knowledge and learning. By doing so, we answer a call to understand the core competencies of a team coach [ 16 ].

ge, there is no set standard for how to train an internal team coach. The discrepancies in defining the approach have made it difficult to move forward, and the significant lack of empirical work greatly constricts the conclusions we can reach. Nevertheless, the leader-behavioral approach is well positioned because it inevitably involves three streams of research: leadership, team science, and team coaching literature.

The leadership training literature has decades of empirical support and a plethora of meta-analytic evidence suggesting that leadership training works (see [ 20 ]). The team training literature is also heavily supported by empirical (e.g., [ 21 ]) and meta-analytic evidence (e.g., [ 22 ]). Moreover, the team coaching literature also contains important insights that use a variety of frameworks outside of the Hackman and Wageman [ 9 ] approach.

Overall, the literature yielded a total of nine main competencies internal team coaches need to have to properly coach their teams, with three under each category. While the majority of these have been previously highlighted by the literature (e.g., initiating structure) [ 24 ], it is their combination that makes an internal team coach separate from simply being a team leader—as not only are they leading their team into success, but purposefully ingraining i

In reviewing the literature, it became clear that leader effectiveness (e.g., [ 27 , 28 ]) and team effectiveness (e.g., [ 29 , 30 ]) hinge on setting clear goals, necessary to keep team members motivated. The team coaching literature reiterated this (e.g., [ 31 , 32 ])—albeit making it abundantly clear that, to even begin guiding one’s team, an internal team coach needs to engage in initiating structure via goal setting.

m members take responsibility for their progress. All three streams of literature reiterated the importance of autonomy/flexibility for effective performance. For example, one leadership intervention found that facilitating autonomy and other psychological needs positively impacted work engagement and performance up to two months post-training [ 36 ]. In virtual teams, working autonomously was also identified as a critical competency [ 37 ].

The general coaching literature noted that coaching can help individuals become autonomous in their learning processes [ 39 ]. Altogether, these findings align with self-determination theory (SDT), which holds autonomy as necessary for motivation [ 40 ]. As another example, in an external team coaching approach, Körner et al.

Therefore, an internal team coach must not only initiate structure but also allow autonomy within said structure and facilitate team member connections to

Another team coaching approach involving a discussion of goals, consideration of consequences, and evaluation suggests team coaching could support goal attainment for a team [ 35 ]. In the leadership training literature, leadership support was positively associated with team functioning [ 43 ]. The team training literature noted mutual support as imperative for handling positive and negative situations [ 44 ].

This structural perspective argues that conflict arises due to higher-order process issues, like an unclear team goal, rather than interpersonal differences (see [ 2 ]). This description does not negate the existence or importance of interpersonal relationships within a team but instead argues that if a team focuses on the task and is clear on what needs to be done, interpersonal relationships will facilitate rather than cloud goal attainment.

ill facilitate rather than cloud goal attainment. In keeping with this original definition, and with recent work on team dynamics finding task cohesion is more predictive of team performance compared to social cohesion (see [ 45 ])—internal leaders who seek to implement team coaching behaviors should offer support for the completion of the task, attempting to clarify steps around the goal to avoid conflict. One exciting way to do this as an internal team coach is to have a vision for the team.

rnal team coach is to have a vision for the team. For example, Aripin et al. [ 46 ] described a successful leader as someone who explains, directs, and demonstrates the organization’s goal and vision, inspiring employees and providing them with purpose and direction. The ability of a leader to think creatively and come up with new concepts, alongside having the ability to combine this with strategy and goal setting, can be conducive to organizational development [ 47 ].

Therefore, an internal team coach can support the team’s mission by helping members visualize the “end game”, offering expertise when needed—and not as an imposition on other’s roles. In other words, the internal team coach must guide others in the right direction, not force them down that path. 6. Competency Area #2 6.1.

In this section, we discuss how internal team leaders can stay focused on the task while fostering positive interpersonal relationships and psychological safety. We do this not from a psychodynamic perspective but from a task perspective, where teams can learn to self-regulate by fostering a safe environment. This process begins by being aware of the team’s needs, maintaining interpersonal sensitivity, and monitoring teamwork behaviors over time.

der who engages in team coaching would be aware of their limitations, establish boundaries, and use this self-awareness to empower the team in other ways. They would give autonomy to the engineer in the team to lead under certain circumstances and empower them to speak up when necessary. Moreover, an effective internal team coach must also develop awareness and understanding of the team’s needs. This can be achieved by assessing team member styles (see [ 32 ]) and understanding a team’s reward preferences (

]) and understanding a team’s reward preferences (see [ 55 ]). For example, while a leader might reward their team for making progress by hosting a pizza party, a leader who engages in team coaching is aware of what team members want as a reward and will gauge whether this would be in line with the team’s desires. This is because an internal team coach maintains an open dialogue with their team and engages in goal setting with them, not for them.

they must maintain interpersonal sensitivity to enable effective performance. Sensitivity came up as a critical competency in multiple streams of research (e.g., [ 47 , 56 , 57 ]). Therefore, an internal team coach should exhibit and model norms of respect to all team members, regardless of who they are. Nevertheless, it is essential to note that engaging with the competency of interpersonal sensitivity is much more effective when woven into a team’s norms (see [ 58 ]).

Engage in Open Dialogue One of the main strengths of internal team coaching is that a team will learn how to self-regulate rather than rely on external interventions or training to engage in effective team processes [ 2 ]. To accomplish such a degree of self-regulation, an internal team coach must maintain open lines of communication with their team.

tain open lines of communication with their team. In opening goal setting and norm-setting as a team process rather than a strict leader process, team members develop their own relation to the team task. For example, in an external coaching intervention, Woodhead [ 42 ] found that, eventually, team members developed a deep sense of trust with each other that enabled collaborative decision making and allowed the team to put the interests of the team first (as opposed to their individual needs).

While in this case, an external actor enabled this, internal team coaches can also do this in their teams (see [ 59 ] for a combined approach), as evidenced by the team literature that found that inclusive communication enabled a shared sense of responsibility for the team’s performance [ 38 ]. Moreover, the team and leadership training literature suggest that open communication can be trained (e.g., [ 44 ]) and promoted [ 60 ]. 7. Competency Area #3 7.1.

Part of team cognition is a team’s shared mental model , defined as knowledge structures that allow teams to have a shared understanding of the task at hand. For an internal team coach to aid and influence team knowledge and learning, they must understand how team cognition and shared mental models develop over time. Moreover, they must facilitate their growth and aid the team in reflecting during goal and after goal completion.

reflecting during goal and after goal completion. This section describes what an internal team leader must understand to facilitate these processes. 7.1.1. Organizes Team Information A challenge for teams is adjusting to changing demands and conditions. One reason this is challenging is that, in a team, it can be difficult to discern who knows what. A critical competency a team leader needs to have to engage in internal team coaching is the ability to organize team information.

hing is the ability to organize team information. One way to organize team information is via a shared mental model that an internal team leader can facilitate via information sharing and exchange [ 61 ]. An internal team leader should promote information sharing, helping embed psychological safety into the team’s culture (see [ 41 ]). This is even more important for teams in turbulent and complex environments, where teams heavily rely on their shared mental model and team leader to function effectively [ 3

model and team leader to function effectively [ 33 ]. This is not a stand-alone competency; it is heavily dependent on initiating structure and properly establishing team roles. However, as opposed to traditional ways of leading, team leaders who seek to engage in team coaching should allow people to get involved in the process of knowledge sharing (see [ 32 ]). Internal team coaches see this process as collaborative and not as an imperative. They help organize the team, but they also rely on their team.

External coaching approaches have established the importance of self-understanding and expanding awareness (see [ 62 ]), and the team training literature suggests that, when people know and understand what everyone is contributing to the overarching goal, they will support other’s contributions [ 63 ]. Therefore, while it is not the job of a leader to know everything, it is their job to make sure team members know who to ask and organize this process.

embers know who to ask and organize this process. The team coach can organize team members’ expertise, connecting team members strategically [ 10 ]. For example, the leader can make a specific attempt to connect the engineer with the team scientist to execute the launch of a product, helping them form a working relationship. Moreover, by being purposeful about initiating structure, team coaches can even align certain team member expertise and potentially even better synchronize their efforts when they work

n better synchronize their efforts when they work together (see [ 35 ]). Team members who are better at integrating knowledge will learn from each other and gain new knowledge and perspectives of the team and the complex problems they are solving (see [ 64 ]). In essence, what will generate new knowledge and subsequent learning will be the team coach’s ability to encapsulate the team’s knowledge and disseminate it to the appropriate team members who are working on a component of the overarching team tasks.

ing on a component of the overarching team tasks. 7.1.2. Facilitates Information Sharing Psychological safety—a reiterated theme in all three streams of literature (e.g., [ 65 , 66 , 67 ])—is vital for knowledge creation because it allows people to share information without fear of reprimand (see [ 11 ]). Hence, a leader who wants to engage in team coaching and increase team knowledge and learning must facilitate knowledge sharing by cultivating a positive environment.

ge sharing by cultivating a positive environment. This begins by playing into the interpersonal competencies discussed above. Moreover, other extant literature suggests fostering psychological safety and a positive environment by being willing to listen to different team members’ perspectives on different issues [ 58 ]. Creating a positive environment is not a one-and-done process. Effective teams will take the opportunity to learn from their mistakes and engage in reflective practices [ 58 ], making sure t

gage in reflective practices [ 58 ], making sure the team understands what happened, what could be done better, and what adjustments will be made, as discussed below. 7.1.3. Reflective Practices Active learning is when a leader structures how the team learns and refines knowledge. The team training and simulation literature finds that when teams set time aside to reflect on their plans and how everyone contributed to the goal, knowledge can increase (see [ 63 , 68 ]).

e goal, knowledge can increase (see [ 63 , 68 ]). Moreover, leaders who engage with learning as a continuous process could potentially continue to enhance knowledge. For example, Seeg et al. [ 69 ] found that a post-training intervention six weeks after training enhanced knowledge transfer. Internal team coaches can learn from this, remind their teams of past experiences, and apply this knowledge to future challenges rather than starting with a slate anew every time something comes up.

with a slate anew every time something comes up. Team reflection and planning are critical for laying the groundwork for team functioning [ 35 , 70 ]. Internal team coaches engage in active learning and can do so via feedback and debriefing. This can be done via feedback and team debriefing to promote knowledge integration and learning (see [ 41 ]). When a team coach provides constructive feedback on teamwork, they can create a culture in which information is freely exchanged, and feedback is viewed as an

Therefore, when mistakes or failures occur, the team coach can use feedback and debriefing to learn for the team and correct mistakes. The effectiveness of the feedback will depend on the tone after the teamwork breakdown and how the team coach presents the information to the team—necessitating the above critical competency of interpersonal sensitivity. 8.

Training the Competencies All three streams of literature contained a plethora of ways in which leaders, coaches, and teams can improve their dynamics. However, one idea was so widely reiterated that it is essential for organizations to understand one crucial step prior to implementing internal team coaching as a strategy. Leaders must conduct a needs analysis before engaging in team coaching (see [ 31 ]).

is before engaging in team coaching (see [ 31 ]). Whether organizations choose to implement a formal training workshop detailing how to perform one or whether internal leaders decide to undertake this practice themselves, both approaches must delineate the importance of understanding what the goal is, where the problems lie, and what can be performed to approach the goal and surrounding issues. Other than this, all three streams of literature contained a variety of ways to train these specific behaviors.
