Systemic Coaching
An association, a company, a function, a team, a project; all of these are systems consisting of elements in relation to one another, with their organization, and with their own purpose.
An association, a company, a department, a team, or a project — each of these can be viewed as a system, made up of interconnected elements that relate to one another, to the organization as a whole, and to a shared purpose.
Systemic Coaching focuses on these interconnections, exploring how the Client interacts with others and with their environment. Rather than isolating a single element from its context, we examine the system as a whole.
The tools and methodologies we apply in Systemic Coaching help reveal the broader reality — going beyond personal perspectives, specific roles, or individual interests — by taking into account all key factors that shape the system.
How it works
In Systemic Coaching, we begin by exploring the client’s situation and identifying the key elements that define it. We then step beyond habitual mental frameworks to see the situation as it truly is — free from limiting assumptions or blind spots.
Once we have a clear picture, we work to harmonize these elements so that the system as a whole can function with greater ease and effectiveness. The ultimate goal is to facilitate results that are ecological — outcomes that are sustainable, balanced, and respectful of the interests and needs of all stakeholders involved.
This approach enhances the precision and impact of the coaching process, helping clients discover new pathways and solutions more quickly, while fostering inner alignment between their rational and emotional selves.
Key Concepts of Systemic Coaching
Systemic Coaching recognizes individuals, teams, and organizations as interconnected systems:
- The individual is a system made up of mind, emotions, and body. A person has values, capabilities, and behaviors that shape how they pursue objectives and manage relationships. Each individual also belongs to multiple systems — families, communities, associations, and networks — which both influence and are influenced by them.
- The team is a formal system comprised of individuals with distinct skills, relational dynamics, shared norms, and approaches to work. It is unified by a common purpose and guided by a leader who steers its performance and cohesion.
- The organization is a broader system, bringing together people, structures, and culture. It operates within an even larger ecosystem of external stakeholders: clients, suppliers, partners, institutions, and more. The collective success of an organization depends on how effectively all these elements are integrated and aligned.
Benefits of Systemic Coaching
Systemic Coaching equips organizations and leaders to address the growing complexity of personal, relational, and organizational challenges in today’s business world. In practice, this approach helps you:
- Explore issues, projects, or relationships from a fresh and systemic perspective, gaining a clearer and more objective understanding of how things truly are.
- Design and assess strategies, organizational structures, projects, and operational plans to ensure they are effective and ecological — achieving objectives while minimizing unwanted side effects.
- Evaluate multiple options with greater confidence and insight, enabling you to make more balanced and informed decisions.
- Cultivate harmony within the system, so that all parties involved — individuals, teams, and the organization as a whole — can thrive and create lasting value.
