Choosing Deployment Options
Selecting the right level of support for your teams and organisation
Squadify offers multiple deployment options so organisations can match the level of support to their teams' needs, maturity, and available resources.
Most enterprise rollouts use a combination of deployment options rather than a single model. Choosing the right mix enables organisations to provide appropriate support where it matters most, control cost as scale increases, build internal capability over time, and maintain a consistent approach to team development.
How to think about deployment choices
When choosing deployment options, organisations typically consider seniority and influence of the team leader, criticality or visibility of the team, team maturity and stability, internal coaching capability, available budget, and speed of impact required.
There is no single "right" option — effectiveness comes from matching support to context.
Option 1: Power Bundle
The Power Bundle is the highest-touch deployment option. A single team leader is supported by a dedicated SquadifyPro Coach, with access to one-to-one coaching, coach-led team sessions, and ongoing on-demand support throughout the engagement.
This model enables rapid understanding of Squadify insights and supports deep, sustained behaviour change.
When the Power Bundle is typically used
- Senior or highly visible leaders
- Mission-critical or exemplar teams
- Teams with specific sensitivities or challenges
- Early pilot teams where rapid success is important
Power Bundles are often used at the start of a rollout to create exemplars, or as temporary support while internal coaches build capability. Teams can later transition to lower-touch models.
Option 2: Cohort (SquadBot-led) support
The Cohort model provides a cost-effective way to support multiple teams using a single SquadifyPro Coach. Typically one coach supports up to 6–8 teams, with team leaders receiving structured one-to-one sessions and group sessions enabling shared learning.
When the Cohort model works well
- Less senior teams with lower available budget
- Groups of teams that are co-located or regionally aligned
- Organisations seeking to scale quickly while maintaining consistency
- Teams that benefit from peer learning and shared experience
Option 3: Internal Coach-supported
The Internal Coach-supported model builds long-term organisational capability by training and certifying internal coaches to support teams using Squadify. This is the most cost-effective model at scale.
Internal coach certification includes e-learning on the Squadify model, practical experience with the platform, and development of skills in debriefing and action planning.
When the Internal Coach model is most effective
- Organisations running large or ongoing rollouts
- Where there is existing internal coaching or L&D capability
- Where consistency of language and approach is important
- Where Power or Cohort models have already established exemplars
Combining deployment options
Most enterprise deployments use a blend of options — for example, Power Bundles for senior or pilot teams, Cohort support for broader rollout groups, and Internal Coaches for sustained long-term coverage. This blended approach enables organisations to maximise impact where it matters most, manage cost effectively, and build internal capability without losing momentum.
Summary of options
| Option | Best fit | Time per cycle |
|---|---|---|
| Power Bundle | Senior teams, exemplar teams, teams with sensitivities | 2–3 hours per cycle plus on-demand coaching |
| Cohort Bundle | Co-located teams, less senior teams, lower budget | Group session (1hr) + 1:1 + team debrief (2–3hrs) |
| Internal Coach-led | Large rollouts, combined with PB/CB for exemplars | 7–8hrs e-learning + live sessions for accreditation |
Choosing the right mix
The right approach reflects your organisational priorities, aligns with your internal capability, and evolves as your rollout matures. The Squadify team can support organisations to design a deployment approach that balances impact, scalability, and sustainability.
