Team Building
Team building is an essential task for all organisations. It can be a challenge to build a team from the ground up or help a team work better together, but it’s necessary as everyone is working toward the same goal: company success.
Team Effectiveness Profile
The Team Effectiveness Profile (TEP) is a workshop designed to assist groups in improving their output and work satisfaction. Under normal circumstances, issues that block a group’s effectiveness may not be apparent. Issues that remain undisclosed can drain a group’s energy and undermine its productive efforts. The TEP was developed to help groups systematically identify these issues. TEP assists teams to identify potential blockages to performance by measuring the extent to which teams engage in five categories of team effectiveness:
- Mission, vision and goals
- Team roles
- Operating processes
- Interpersonal relationships
- Inter-team relationships
Learning Outcomes
- Identify issues that block effectiveness
- Reduce or eliminate problems that can drain a group’s energy
- Maximise the group’s productive efforts
