Successful team
members don’t do the same thing at the same time. They do the right thing at the
right time. The
Team Dimensions Profile®
helps individuals work from their strengths by identifying their most natural
team role, while giving them added appreciation for the contributions of others. The
Team Dimensions Profile
identifies the following five team roles:
-
Creators
generate new ideas and fresh concepts.
-
Advancers
communicate new ideas and carry them forward.
-
Refiners
analyze ideas for flaws or revise projects systematically.
-
Executors
deliver concrete results and seek successful implementations.
-
Flexers
have an equal preference for most or all of the roles and can often adapt
their styles to fit the team’s needs.
Organizations use the
Team Dimensions
Profile to match individual
strengths with team roles, build team unity, foster innovation, shorten project
cycle time, and reduce conflict.
As organizations rely more
on teams to innovate, problem-solve, produce, and compete at the speed of
change, understanding and capitalizing on individual approaches to group
processes is the bottom line on creating high-performance teams.
