INDIVIDUAL COMMITMENT TO A GROUP EFFORT — THAT IS WHAT MAKES A TEAM WORK, A COMPANY WORK, A SOCIETY WORK, A CIVILIZATION WORK.          


Team Diagnostic Assessment

Teams exist to produce results. In corporate America, especially with the advent of massive technology creating globalization, the competition is no less than fierce! To be a competitive force companies are paring down staff and requiring more out of the remaining workforce. At Marsha Marsh Coaching we consistently hear that people are working upwards to 80 hours a week and they don’t even know if anyone is noticing. That is double the so called “work week”. Good initiatives are failing, and technology – well let’s put it this way, the car can’t drive itself. Employees have consistent complaints about the inability to work with their team mates and difficulties relating to their managers. Droves of people are getting fed up with the “corporate life” and taking drastic measures to survive or just falling down. We believe that a greater part of difficulties lie in the fact that people are working as “Teams” and yet they have not been taught how to integrate all the different complexities of the human condition. They struggle to integrate the necessary work streams to be the “Sustainable High Performing Team”.

To work with the complexities we have become Authorized Facilitators of the Stellar Team Diagnostic from Team Coaching International. The diagnostic is based on the premise that “Increased Productivity without Positivity creates burnout!” The model asserts that the team is a system, not just a collection of individuals. The system can be measured by its productivity and positivity strengths such as trust, respect, constructive interaction, team leadership, accountability, communication and more. There is significant research that proves that high performing teams that sustain the performance and grow must be strong in productivity and positivity. The assessment is a tool which creates an initial benchmark portraying where the team is currently in relation to 14 measures of productivity and positivity such as trust, leadership, alignment. It is an 80 question online assessment that is anonymous and confidential. The scores are debriefed in a retreat style format with training on how to use the results. The basic idea when the scores are debriefed is to create open dialogue as to how the team sees themselves and opportunities for the ongoing development of the team.

The scores are represented in full color graphic profiles highlighting the team opportunities and strengths.
