Caroline Duffy joins Georgina and Allard to share a defining moment in her journey from facilitator to emergent team coach. Working with senior leadership teams, Caroline reflects on how naming her own frustration and inviting real-time reflection unlocked deeper engagement and learning.

Together, they explore the courage and vulnerability required to work emergently, the importance of trust and clear contracting, and why “travelling light”—letting go of rigid agendas—creates space for meaningful transformation.

You’ll discover:

• What happens when coaches move from facilitation to emergent, team-led work.
• How naming what’s real can unlock trust and deeper dialogue.
• The role of courage, vulnerability, and contracting in moments of emergence.
• Why embracing unpredictability often leads to the most meaningful change.
• How continuous self-development supports both coaches and the teams they serve.

In this episode, Georgina and Allard are joined by fellow team coaches and TCS Diploma alumni Emily Jones and Dr Sebastian Fox for a rich, candid exploration of emergence in action. Emily shares an early-career experience of holding steady in the midst of team conflict—learning to stay present, trust the process, and allow the tension itself to become a catalyst for meaningful change. Seb reflects on both successful and challenging moments, offering insights into the delicate balance between structure and spaciousness, psychological safety and productive discomfort, intervention and silence.

You’ll discover:

• How coaches navigate conflict and uncertainty while staying grounded and connected.
• Why psychological safety and structure matter, but also have limits.
• The art of knowing when to step in and when to let silence do the work.
• The unique power of co-coaching, from shared presence to multiple perspectives and deeper reflection.

Throughout the conversation, the group highlights the real nature of emergence; imperfect, unscripted, and full of possibility. Their stories affirm that the most transformative moments often arise when coaches stay present, trust the field, and allow situations to unfold.

What if the most powerful shifts in team coaching happen not through planning, but through the unexpected moments that move us?

In this episode of Teams Transformed, Allard and Georgina kick off a brand-new series exploring emergence in team coaching—what it really is, what makes it possible, and why it’s becoming essential in today’s organisational landscape.

You’ll discover:

• Why presence and attunement are foundational for working emergently.
• How tuning into a team’s energy opens space for deeper learning and connection.
• The value of slowing down to notice what’s unfolding beneath the surface.

Are we ever truly ready for the next step in our coaching journey - or is growth something that unfolds as we go?

In this reflective episode of Teams Transformed, Georgina and Allard look back on the evolution of the series and their own paths as team coaches. They explore the deep personal work that underpins effective coaching - how family dynamics shape our styles, and why real mastery goes far beyond tools, frameworks, or techniques.

You’ll discover:

• How personal history and self-awareness influence your coaching presence.
• Why ongoing self-discovery, supervision, and community are essential companions on the journey.
• The courage it takes to stay vulnerable, curious, and authentic with teams.
• Key insights revisited from previous episodes, including emergent approaches and individualised practice.

This conversation is both a reflection and an invitation - to keep evolving, to embrace uncertainty, and to continue growing as a practitioner, even when you don’t feel entirely “ready.”

If you’re a coach, facilitator, or leader committed to lifelong learning, this episode will remind you that readiness isn’t a destination - it’s a way of being.

Every team moves through distinct stages of growth - but how can coaches skillfully guide them through each one?

In this episode of Teams Transformed, Georgina and Allard explore a refreshingly simple yet powerful model of team development, inspired by Gestalt theory and the work of the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland. Moving beyond the familiar Tuckman framework, they introduce a three-phase approach: beginnings (orientation and inclusion), middles (differentiation and constructive conflict), and endings (cohesion and integration).

You’ll discover:

• What each stage feels like for team members, and the psychological needs present at each phase.
• How to create psychological safety early on to set a strong foundation.
• Why healthy conflict in the middle stages is essential for growth and innovation.
• Ways to support endings so teams can integrate learning and move forward stronger.
• Practical strategies for applying this framework in both single sessions and ongoing coaching journeys.

Join us for rich insights and real-world examples that help coaches, leaders, and facilitators recognise where their teams are—and how to meet them there with purpose and awareness.

What if the real technology for change in team coaching isn’t found in new tools or frameworks—but in the meta skills you bring to the room?

In this episode of Teams Transformed, Georgina and Allard introduce the three core meta skills that underpin powerful, transformational work with teams: presence, use of self, and active experiments.

You’ll discover:

• Why these higher-order skills are the foundation of effective team coaching.
• How to work more impactfully in the moment by drawing on presence and use of self.
• Practical ways to run active experiments that shift unhelpful patterns.
• Why meta skills matter more than techniques when it comes to lasting transformation.

Through real-world stories and practical examples, this conversation highlights how meta skills equip coaches, leaders, and facilitators to help teams learn, adapt, and grow together—no matter what challenges arise.

What happens when coaches and teams stop trying to control the process and start leaning into uncertainty instead?

In this episode of Teams Transformed, Georgina and Allard explore the challenges and profound opportunities that emerge when we let go of rigid agendas and embrace present-moment work. Through vivid metaphors, personal stories, and research, they reveal how uncertainty isn’t something to fear - it’s a powerful entry point for awareness, connection, and transformation.

You’ll discover:

• Why identifying the unspoken needs of a team can often unlock deeper collaboration.
• How shifting from scripted control to attuned presence creates real movement.
• The role of awareness in expanding what’s possible for a team.
• Practical ways to let possibilities emerge, rather than forcing outcomes.

This conversation invites leaders, coaches, and facilitators to see uncertainty not as chaos, but as an opportunity for teams to truly grow and learn together.
