 This instrument looks at the ability to effectively build a team using the Forming, Storming, Norming, and Performing model. It is critical to understand the stages through which a typical team will travel over time. Within these stages seven categories of teambuilding competency can be derived. When individuals or organizations face significant situations or challenges, one of the first priorities is to understand the issues involved and to work out what needs to be done. In many cases, we do not need any formal assistance to help this process and can think our way through the steps that seem to be most appropriate. However, on occasion the issues or the problems may not be entirely clear and a structured approach can help considerably. This program's diagnostic assessment is simple and easy-to-use and its comprehensive profile helps participants understand their skills or the situations they face more effectively.
