AB  - Objectives: The objective of this study was to discover the individual’s beliefs surrounding challenge in a team based setting and to examine the notion of challenge in depth by investigating the complexity of components that constitutes what challenge means to the individual.  Design: A qualitative approach was taken utilising Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis to explore and describe in the participants’ own words how they view and make sense of challenge as a key motivation.  Methods: The study took place in a university in North Wales with fourteen participants. Part of the inclusion process was to ensure that all participants had or have experience of working in organisations with a strong team based work structure.  Results: From the study four themes emerged and together these areas form a new definition of challenge which states that challenge is not a singular construct but comprises numerous components which together are grouped into four distinct elements. The model comprises a Temporal component of challenge, an Emotive component of challenge, an Achievable component of challenge and a Motivational component of challenge (TEAM).  Conclusion: By taking the findings of this study into consideration it is suggested that coaching psychology interventions can be implemented which will benefit both the organisation and employee.
