Teamwork assessment
Understand the attitudes, behaviors, and cognitions that shape how your team works.
Teamwork needs analysis
A teamwork needs analysis is a structured process used to identify what a team requires in order to function effectively. It goes beyond task-related skills (the what of the job) and focuses on teamwork-related knowledge, skills, and attitudes (the how of working together). No two teams are alike. Achieving high performance requires a tailored approach to both team composition and team development.
The ABCs of teamwork: deficiency analysis
The ABC’s of teamwork—Attitudes, Behaviors, and Cognitions—are the core drivers of team performance. They capture how teams and their members feel, think, and act. These elements are often expressed through teamwork processes (such as coordination and communication) and emergent states (such as cohesion and shared team cognition). Deficiencies in any of these areas can undermine effectiveness and lead to poor organizational outcomes.
Team composition analysis
Team composition refers to the configuration of team member attributes: taskwork skills, such as functional expertise, and teamwork skills, such as communication and collaboration. We examine this combination in the context of the team’s work.
A tailored approach
The Teamwork Audit is tailored to your organization’s needs. An engagement may focus on needs analysis, teamwork deficiencies, team composition, or a combination of these areas.
