| Summary: | Utilising qualitative methodology, this research explored the impact of team coaching on enhancing team mindfulness traits in the context of teams in the workplace. With teams facing ongoing changes and stressors, the quality of interpersonal interactions between team members can suffer, affecting a team’s capacity to be mindful. The research sought to identify whether team coaching fosters an environment whereby team mindfulness behaviours can be heightened. Four areas of perceived change within teams were characterised as relational, behavioural, cognitive and emotional. However, the effectiveness of the intervention can be hindered by the leader’s behaviours. This article highlights the benefits of developing team mindfulness traits through team coaching and offers practical suggestions for coaches to support teams in dynamic environments. |
