Team Awareness
A team profile of the individual work styles of team members, including team strengths and potential issues, the culture created by commonalities, and recommendations to enhance the team's performance. Includes a half-day feedback session that is educational and enjoyable.

Process

Step 1 - Gathering data

Each participant completes a work-style measure.

Step 2 - Reporting the findings

We develop a comprehensive team profile full of valuable information, including team strengths and potential issues. This report is reviewed with the team leader prior to Step 3.

Step 3 - Team workshop (1/2 day)

The feedback workshop includes:

The theory basis for this workshop (very brief; provides the "so what" for the workshop).
A review and discussion of the team profile, including individual work styles, commonalities, team strengths and potential issues among team members.

Timing

Steps 1-3 can usually be scheduled within a two-week period.
