Assessing Your Team Processes

 

To build a successful future, we  must first let go of the past.

This involves looking closely at every dimension of the teams working practices and making improvements in the critical areas.

Accurate feedback is essential for improving team work.  We need to understand how everyone feels about what we do and then act to improve our performance.

Team Architecture is designed to obtain accurate data about how the team's various processes perform.  This assessment tool provides a structured approach to:-

  • Working with stakeholders to assess the team
  • Helping them feel included in the decision making process
  • Providing specific targets for improvement

Too often the potential of teams is undermined by poor structures and we do not have time to think about how to improve.

It leaves us stuck in a debilitating cycle of minor adaptations which eat away at the foundations of the team.


 

Every team  needs to  take a step back, develop a clear view  of the future and move on.

This picture is often distorted by an over emphasis on targets and  a disregard for more complex issues

We work with your team members/ stakeholders to:

  • Review their perceptions of how the team works
  • Build a questionaire
  • Design the review process
  • Agree recommendations for the future

This is like painting a portrait using different sketches to illustrate the different structural aspects of the team. 

Teams who have been accurately assessed know:

  1. Where to invest their time and energy
  2. How to maximise their effectiveness
  3. What their limitations are
