In order to strive for high performance, teams need to function with fluidity, working off of each other’s strengths and weaknesses. As Liz’s sports coach used to say, “You’re only as strong as your weakest link,” meaning we all have to pull together to be great! In team coaching, we help teams build camaraderie in order to grow to their next level of success.
To do this, we coach them to:
The ability to be a good team player is not always innate. Many people have to learn how to function in their role in order to become a valuable asset to the group. Our team coaching will help diagnose the makeup of the team and will recommend adjustments where needed.
Team coaching can be for as little as 2 people, or up to 20. The size of the team does not matter since the principles are universal and can be scaled up or down as needed.

Having attended seminars with many of the top ‘name brand’ training companies, I can say that the leadership and management training I received from Liz Bentley Associates was outstanding in its practical, no-nonsense and immediately applicable approach. Liz was excellent at keeping the whole group involved, and paced her curriculum in a way that made it easy to apply it to the team immediately.

Liz led the sales teams of Billboard and The Hollywood Reporter in a 2-day Sales Boot Camp. Even some who were skeptical of sales training seminars were completely engaged and blown away by how effective it was in bonding the team and giving them new tools to energize their sales process. The response was overwhelming from the entire team, which resonated for months after. We can’t wait to do it again!

I’ve recently had the pleasure of attending Liz Bentley’s Emerging Leaders Workshop prior to the SHRM convention. In the two full days, she held the audience of 50+ attendees in awe of her command of the material, humor and control of the message. I am impressed with her coaching skills and her ability to connect with a crowd on an individual level.

We recently invited Liz to speak to our associates at our annual All Company Meeting. Her presentation "Step Into Your Power" was a hit with our group. Not only was the information timely but relevant as well. I received much praise for Liz from a number of our associates after the presentation. I am confident we will be engaging Liz again in the future.

I've been exposed to many personality assessments geared toward teams and management / leadership but never really saw the value of the generalizations. When you're a young manager I think you want to treat everyone like snowflakes. After working through the DISC assessment and having a few of the managers that work for me take and share with their teams, it became a much more scalable management approach than the 'snowflake' method. DISC created a common language around employee needs allowing us to have more productive conversations on how we can support and motivate one another. I've found the language useful to help grow young managers, foster peer support, facilitate 360 reviews and generally drive a more transparent, supportive culture. I will say DISC (like other personality assessments) is only part of the puzzle - it's essential to have a guide to help foster insight and find ways to apply its learnings.
