Helping a senior BBC department move from conflict and fragmentation towards trust, openness and stronger collaboration.
01
A key department within the BBC approached Lequin to help address significant internal challenges within the team. There was a growing sense of in-fighting, lack of direction and strained working relationships, which was impacting both team cohesion and the department's wider influence across the organisation.
02
Lequin designed and delivered an integrated programme of team coaching and one-to-one executive coaching for senior leaders within the department. The programme combined systems-based team coaching with individual leadership development to help shift both collective behaviours and individual mindsets.
Rather than treating the issue as a traditional team building exercise, Lequin approached the work as purposeful team coaching, focused on creating meaningful behavioural and cultural change. The team was encouraged to step back from rivalry and conflict and view the wider system objectively, helping individuals understand both the needs of the team and the impact of their own behaviours within it.
Alongside the team interventions, leaders received one-to-one coaching support to work on personal development areas, leadership behaviours and individual action points identified during the team sessions. This combination of collective and individual development created greater accountability, openness and alignment across the group.

Lequin's coaching-led approach helped the department move from fragmentation and conflict towards a more connected, resilient and high-performing culture, creating stronger relationships internally and improving how the team engaged with the wider business.
In their words
“Lequin's support to our team has helped us to move towards being a high performing team. Our team is now a great place to work with trust and support as well as challenge and honesty.”
