In this episode of Teams Transformed, Georgina and Allard are joined by Jen Campion, an Executive and Team Coach with a background in strategy and organisational change. Working across public and private sectors, Jen supports leaders and teams navigating complexity and change. Her practice is grounded in Gestalt—slowing down, paying attention, and creating the conditions for honest dialogue and meaningful shifts in how teams work together.
Jen shares a powerful story from a team session where a team member voiced a strong opinion that created palpable tension—one of those charged moments that often get smoothed over too quickly. Reflecting on her own unusually strong intervention, Jen explores what it means to stay with the energy in the room and use it as a doorway to deeper team learning and growth.
You’ll discover:
· How to recognise and work with charged moments in team conversations.
· Why pausing and developing open awareness can unlock deeper dialogue.
· How coaches can navigate strong emotions without shutting them down.
· The importance of ongoing inner work, self-acceptance, and supervision for coaches.
· How presence and vulnerability can catalyse powerful shifts in team dynamics.
This episode offers rich insight for team coaches and leaders alike, reminding us that the moments that feel most uncomfortable often hold the greatest potential for awareness, learning, and transformation.
