    <description>Welcome to Teams Unleashed—the definitive podcast for team coaches and leaders who are ready to elevate their impact and unlock the full power of teams.

Hosted by Spencer Horn, President of Team Coaching International (TCI), this podcast sits at the forefront of one of the most important shifts in the coaching industry today:
the rise of team coaching as the fastest-growing specialization in coaching.

And here’s what makes this conversation different—
this is where the methodology began.

TCI is the original creator of the Team Diagnostic™ and a pioneer in the field of team coaching, having shaped this discipline for over two decades through its research-backed models, certification programs, and global community of practitioners .

Inspired by the book Teams Unleashed, each episode brings you inside the real work of team coaching—featuring TCI faculty, certified coaches, and industry experts who are actively applying this methodology with teams around the world.

This podcast is designed to serve three powerful purposes:

1. Support and elevate practicing team coaches
Deepen your mastery of team coaching competencies, tools, and interventions so you can create measurable, lasting results with your clients.

2. Showcase and amplify the work of TCI-certified coaches
Learn directly from practitioners in the field as they share real case studies, challenges, and breakthroughs—demonstrating what world-class team coaching looks like in action.

3. Help you choose the right path to certification
If you’re exploring team coaching, this podcast gives you an inside look at the depth, rigor, and impact of TCI’s methodology—so you can confidently invest in the approach that sets you apart.

Inside each episode, you’ll discover:

The science behind high-performing teams—balancing productivity and positivity
How to use diagnostic tools to create clarity, alignment, and accountability
Proven frameworks for transforming team dynamics and culture
The evolving role of team coaching in a rapidly changing, AI-influenced world

At its core, Teams Unleashed is more than a podcast—
it’s a platform to advance the profession of team coaching and the coaches who lead it.

Join a global community of forward-thinking coaches who aren’t just coaching individuals—
they’re transforming teams, organizations, and what’s possible when people truly work together.</description>
