SPOTLIGHT: Team Flow Coach Lies Verstraete

Flow Concepts offers training to become a certified Team Flow Coach. In the SPOTLIGHT section, we always shine our spotlight on one of our affiliated Team Flow Coaches. In this blog, we do so on Lies Verstraete. Lies was our first Belgian participant in the Team Flow Training, after which we immediately gave her the confidence to independently market the team flow philosophy and related tools of Flow Concepts in Belgium! She now does this with great compassion, pleasure, and satisfaction!

The Conceptualization of Team Flow

In August 2018, Jef van den Hout, Orin Davis and Mathieu Weggeman published the article “The Conceptualization of Team Flow” in the scientific journal “The Journal of Psychology: Interdisciplinary and Applied.” This involved an extensive literature review which led to a generic model with propositions for research on the relationships between individual flow and team flow.

The importance of team flow in the practice of professional organizations

Being innovative, creative, and productive as an organization requires effective collaboration in small teams. Flow is a state we experience when we are fully absorbed in an activity, accompanied by a motivated and energetic focus. In a moment of team flow, we experience this together while performing mutually dependent tasks for the team’s interest. Research on flow has shown that flow leads to better performance, more job satisfaction, fulfillment, happiness, creativity, and meaning. If the right conditions are created to put everyone’s strengths into flow, members of teams and organizations could together express their maximum potential. Therefore, wouldn’t it be great if, during team collaboration, people experienced flow together?

Wondering how we can increase the likelihood of team flow within your organization?

Let’s schedule an intake session to see how we can help you move forward.
