Team performance in an important part of any organization, as a company is only as successful as its teams. Unfortunately, many teams may not be as successful as their leader’s wish they would be. A team assessment will help you optimize your team's performance.

At TestGroup, we offer comprehensive team assessments and subsequent team reports that can shed more light on the overall setup of your team.

What is a team assessment?

A team assessment is an evaluation of the personality, skills and competencies of a team within a company. You may assess a team to know whether the team members meet the requirements to be part of the team, whether members are comfortable working together, or if their different personalities match the team's goal.

The most crucial part of a team assessment lies in the reports that you get from this evaluation. Using a tool such as Bridge Personality Team Workshop can reveal a wide range of information that can help you enhance your team's performance.

With The Bridge Personality Team Report, you can learn about all members’ diverse traits, which form the basis of conflict resolution, problem-solving, and ongoing collaboration.

How does the team assessment work?

Together with the team report and the individual Bridge Personality reports, you have everything ready for your team. We set everything up for you immediately, so you can get started with your team.

Importance of a team assessment

Team insights: By conducting team assessments, you can learn about members' strengths and weaknesses. These insights will allow you to make the most of their strongest points and work on their areas needing improvement.
Roles assignment: Even though your team works collectively toward a goal, you need to assign roles to individual members. An assessment helps you determine which roles best suit which team members. The result is a cohesive, synergistic team that correctly utilizes everyone’s strengths for success.
Improves communication: The Bridge Personality team workshop can help provide insights about colleagues' behaviors, which can help you establish certain behavioral patterns to bolster effective team communication.
Enhances working experience: When each team member understands each other's traits, they can use that as a guide for how to best interact. This, in turn, will help to build a pleasant working environment, and the team can collaboratively achieve better results.

There’s only more to gain by conducting team assessments. You should consider conducting workshop assessments on teams of at least three people and a maximum of twelve.

Client Case: Team Assessment in a large international manufacturing company

Background

In pursuit of better team performance, a large manufacturing company turned to the insights of Harvard researchers who studied the dynamics of successful teams. This study highlighted the importance of communication patterns and the power of informal interactions in team environments. Inspired by these findings and the positive results of an experiment with daily joint coffee breaks, the company decided to implement TestGroup's team assessment and a 4-color personality test.

Objective

The primary objective was to improve inter-team dynamics by gaining a better understanding of the individual talents, motivations, and personality types of team members. The company aimed to create a work environment where everyone could optimally utilize their potential. Additionally, the company wanted to learn how to conduct a team training using a personality test.

Approach

The company opted for TestGroup's team assessment, known for its university-developed tests, including The Bridge Personality. This assessment maps out the qualities, talents, skills, and potential pitfalls of individual team members.

All team members completed The Bridge Personality, resulting in a detailed profile of the talents and personalities present within each team. These insights provided leaders with the information needed to distribute tasks and responsibilities more effectively.

Results

Improved Team Performance: The implementation of daily coffee breaks led to a significant decrease in the average order processing time and an overall increase in productivity.
Better Team Dynamics: Insights from the team assessment led to a better understanding among team members, resulting in stronger relationships and smoother collaboration.
Increased Job Satisfaction: The approach led to an increase in job satisfaction, sometimes by more than 10%.

Lessons learned

Communication, especially informal, is crucial for team success.
Understanding and leveraging individual talents and personalities within a team is essential for optimal team performance.
Creating an environment where team members feel free to socialize and exchange ideas is invaluable.

Conclusion

This case study illustrates how a large manufacturing company, by integrating insights from Harvard research and applying TestGroup's Team Assessment, achieved significant improvements in team dynamics and productivity. It emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to team management, recognizing and leveraging both formal and informal aspects of team interactions.
