As a Team Coach at Motion For Impact, I look into not just the well-being but also the personal development of individuals in the team. Did a short group coaching session using CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) with the newcomers including some of our interns from Singapore Institute of Technology. There were some really deep sharing and it was an awesome time with the ladies at Motion!
Team Coaching (Strategic Leadership Retreat)
I had a full day of leadership strategic session offsite recently. It was a refreshing time. I facilitated a team check-in. I helped set up a team agreement. I offered some perspectives and facilitated some discussions. When different leaders facilitated, I observed the team dynamics and intervene when a shift was needed.
What was new wasn’t what I did.
What was new was how I did it. I did it from a role of an in-house team coach.
It was a very different way of being as compared to being an external facilitator.
I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) Workshop - Motion For Impact
[What do I do as a team coach in Motion?]
Using Motion’s language, I help individuals and the team shift their “ways of being”. I help them see ways to engage with purpose and most importantly with CARE. When we do that, the results speak for itself. The team members trust each other. Clients trust us.
We ended this week learning strengths together. It was a dedicated time to stop and reflect, to listen and to know each other in a deeper way, to build respect and care.
The Motion team saw how the values and beliefs held in Motion: For Impact was deeply connected to Juliana Mattar’s strengths. As a team, we acknowledged her leadership and how she showed care.
Felt so energized after the session. I love being able to apply the different ontological coaching process into this space!

Team Coaching at Motion: 2022 Moments
It’s been one month into my new role as an in-house #teamcoach at Motion: For Impact
I observed that the pace is fast. Yet, we can be fast and intentional. Creating capacity in oneself and in teams is about intentionally creating the space for #learning.
We came together to do a team session focusing on 2022 moments. The idea was to reflect on key moments of 2022 to draw out personal learnings.
The session started in a light hearted way before everyone did some serious self-work. We acknowledged the highlights and lowlights and drew out learnings. We ended with a time of gratitude to have closure.
The rest of the day was focused on how the business has developed and we ended the day by inviting different business partners to join us for a celebration meal.
For me, the day can be summarized by two phrases:
- Joyful growth
- Connection to self and others
