Yes, I feel that this team, on balance, creates more value than the energy invested, and we are stronger together than we would be apart.

Somewhat. I often feel that I might achieve the same results individually, but I enjoy working with the team and I might find it harder to achieve results working with someone else.

Not at all. We all have different goals and conflicting ideas and the friction between us results in too much effort given our results. I sometimes feel I succeed in spite of others, not because of them and if I had the option would not work with this team.

I find it a bit annoying, and it seems difficult for us to adapt, but we do our best to make the necessary adjustments and keep going.

Any new situation or unexpected change make us stressed and unhappy. Last minute changes are resisted as too much trouble and any significant barriers we did not plan for can cause real problems for us.

It’s no big deal, we are always happy to adapt to make it work and try something different, it’s easy to flex with most change and overcome barriers we might encounter.

We fully trust each other. I know they have my best interests at heart and they have trust in me. I know I can rely on them to watch out for my needs, and I can safely predict they will meet their obligations and follow-through. I can take chances with them with low risk.

I think that we all tend to put our own needs first, especially under pressure, and I must be careful to minimize any risk and make sure others on the team do not place their own needs above mine when the heat is on.

I think our interests are mostly aligned and most team members usually do what they say, but I don’t always feel fully confident that I can rely on each member. I do not know if we really understand each other’s motivations or skills and concerns.

I don’t feel like I know most of the team members at all. I know what their job responsibilities are, and we communicate enough to get the work done but that’s about it.

We all understand and know each other very well and we have a lot of mutual respect and trust within the team. Even when we are busy we try to find time for some non-work topics.

Sometimes there are miscommunications and we clash, but each member generally has a good sense of the other’s values and characteristic traits beyond just our roles on the job.

I don’t believe so. We have a productive, trusting and collaborative relationships which team members are pretty satisfied with.

I think most of us would like to end this team or be part of some other group. There is almost no value in working together, we never see eye to eye, and are only working together because we have no choice.

They might. We often have conflicting values and trust issues, and experience a lot of stress and drama given what we produce.

I think we had a meeting a few months ago for "team building" but I don’t recall anything recent. Sometimes we have a quick check in at the start of meetings.

We often go out to lunch or share coffee, or otherwise have 1:1 time with each other, where we touch base on everything – personal lives, individual goals outside of work, etc. We are sure to carve out time for other than the day-to-day issues.

We hardly ever discuss anything outside of the most pressing business issues to address, the status of tasks and results. That’s what is most important to us with our limited time.

I feel like we always encounter challenges and conflicts – our communication is very poor with too much effort and too little resolved. We tend to avoid issues because the drama and emotional cost is not worth the effort. We almost never share feedback with each other.

We meet on a regular basis to discuss upcoming projects, challenges, and strategies and we surface any conflicts or tensions so we can deal with them. Feedback is a regular part of our communication, both positive and negative.

We discuss challenges when they come up and sometimes conflicts remain unresolved, but we manage to continue to produce our critical results. Some issues are too sensitive and so are not surfaced. We tend to only give or get feedback during the annual performance management process.

We’re often competitive but we all try not to cross the line into negative behaviors – my goal is to make sure my objectives are accomplished. I mostly let others watch out for their own needs.

We may get heated but we always have our shared values and interests at heart and we each want everyone on the team to succeed. We may argue but then we come together and collaborate once a decision is made.

People on this team want to win, always and at any cost. Most seem to care primarily about their personal success, and have no problem causing damage to others if that is what they think is necessary to meet their own needs.

We are each eager and ready to respond to any input or feedback on our decisions or actions without defensiveness, and we can quickly make changes when needed.

If something is a significant problem or issue we can talk about it and sometimes are able to make changes if there is a good reason for it.

I do not feel I am effective in influencing others on the team and I am not very interested in taking their input either. Most people want to stay in their own lane and not comment on others' work. We are careful because feedback might not be well received by other team members.
