Questions

1
We have a meaningful purpose.
*
This field is required.
There is a clear and compelling reason to be together that goes beyond our individual responsibility areas. In high-performance teams a commitment to the team's purpose should be at least as important as the commitment to the purpose for the area each member leads.

We have shared goals.
*
This field is required.
The team needs to be focused on a set of outcomes which all members are committed to achieving and which require contribution by everyone. If it's truly a team goal, everyone should feel equally responsible for its achievement. These are not necessarily the same as the company's goals.

We have the right mix of people.

This field is required.
The team's members have a complementary set of skills, experiences, and styles necessary for fulfilling the needed roles and responsibilities.

There's a sense of equality.

We have high candor levels.
*
This field is required.
People say what needs saying in a direct and respectful manner. Members are receptive to hearing tough messages without becoming defensive. Heated discussions are not viewed as a problem, but rather a positive activity as long as the discussion stays focused on issues/behaviors rather than on personalities.
