teamshaper for team leaders
you are
You keep your team moving, balancing delivery, direction and development. You translate strategy into action, manage expectations from above and keep people focused on what matters. You see where small changes in how the team works could make a big difference, but finding training that fits your reality isn’t always easy. You need something that starts from how your team actually works and builds capability to do it even better.
we are
A collective of experienced trainers and coaches who design and deliver team-based professional development programmes for public sector organisations.
We build CPD-accredited programmes around your team’s live work and priorities, helping strengthen collaboration, raise standards, improve team dynamics and re-energise people around shared goals.
how we add value
-
training that drives delivery
We use your team’s live work as training material, so learning time advances real projects and leaves you with habits and templates that repay the time invested.
-
alignment with your agenda
Programmes are built around what your team is working to achieve, creating focus on priorities and follow-through on delivery.
-
impact you can see
Outcomes are agreed at the start and reported at the end. Combined with the GC Index, this helps you evidence the impact of the work you’ve invested in.
-
expertise you can trust
Specialists with deep public sector experience who understand your pressures and priorities, sharing insight and best practice from elsewhere.
-
continuity across programmes
Our associates work as one integrated team, sharing insight and context from every engagement so learning connects, progress builds and impact strengthens over time.
-
more for your budget
Our collective model gives you specialists without corporate overheads, and transparent pricing for design and delivery, helping resources stretch further.
-
expert partners who listen
We take the time to understand your team’s goals, challenges and realities, designing programmes that fit your needs and deliver lasting results, rather than forcing you into ours.
-
energy that endures
Teams leave with shared tools, language and habits that raise standards, strengthen dynamics and keep people energised long after the programme ends.
examples of some programmes we designed
-
AI-Ready Teams

-
Resilience through Change
Strengthen resilience and stability through uncertainty. Give teams practical tools to stay steady, connected and productive during organisational transformation.
-
Human-Centred Writing
Help comms teams use AI without losing authenticity. Build confident, ethical and human-sounding public-sector messaging across digital, press and internal channels.
What is the GC Index
Every Teamshaper programme starts with understanding how a team works. The GC Index is one way of gaining that insight. It’s a simple but powerful framework that shows how people make their greatest impact at work. Rather than analysing personality or job title, it highlights the distinct ways individuals naturally contribute to a team’s success: by generating ideas, shaping strategy, driving delivery, refining outputs or connecting people.
For public sector teams, it provides a shared practical language for understanding how each member leads, collaborates and adds value. Seeing the collective profile helps identify strengths, gaps and where energy is concentrated or missing, insight that can make any development programme more targeted and effective.
The GC Index is an optional add-on to Teamshaper programmes, used where it adds clear value.
To help you experience its benefit, we’re offering a free no-commitment individual GC Index assessment and review for leaders of public sector or third sector teams in the UK (organisations with more than 50 staff, one free assessment per organisation).
