What is Team Resources?
Team Resources® is a family of team performance diagnostics that measure your team's capabilities in the following areas:
• Team Performance Survey: It's capabilities against the six characteristics of high performance teamwork
• Team Development Survey: It's overall development against its full team potential
• Team Communication Profile: The quality and effectiveness of its communication
• Team Meeting Profile: The efficiency and effectiveness of its meetings
• Team Conflict Profile: Its ability to overcome and harness conflict
Each diagnostic provides information regarding its rating system and the logic behind it, detailed test results, average team scores, and materials for helping your team absorb the information and develop a plan for improvement.

How do the Team Resources Diagnostics work?
The Team Resources diagnostics collect information by asking your team members a series of questions. The diagnostic process begins with an email, to the list of team members you provide, containing a member-specific link to that diagnostic’s survey. The Team Resources system anonymously records and parses each team member’s answers and comments to begin creating the final diagnostic report. When at least 75% of your team has completed their surveys, our system provides a download link for your report, located on your team’s administrative dashboard page.

Are the Team Resources diagnostic results anonymous?
Yes. The Team Resources system does not know the team members’ names, and only uses their email addresses to send out the links. No details regarding their identity is provided in either their numeric answers or their comments, except where their comments provide a reference. We will not provide this information to employers or anyone else, except in the case of implied threat or in reference to illegal activity.

How do I purchase a Team Resources Diagnostic?
Purchasing a diagnostic is quick and easy. Simply click on “Diagnostics” in the navigation menu and determine which diagnostic you would like to purchase. Then, in the purchase box to the right of each diagnostic, select the number of people you would like to include on your team, and use the drop down box directly below that to give that team a label (Team A, Team B, etc). When finished, click on “Add to Cart,” and watch for the cart icon to appear on the right side of your page (it will bounce once or twice to help you find it). You may now continue adding teams or additional diagnostics for this team.
Simply use the same team size and team name if you want to add another diagnostic for the same group of people, or enter a new team size and select a different team name for another group. You can purchase as many diagnostics as you want at the same time.
Click on the shopping cart icon to view how many of each diagnostic are being applied to each team, and how many members you have on each team. To remove a team or diagnostic from your shopping cart, simply click on the “Delete” button located on the same line as the team or diagnostic you want to remove.

Why do I have to choose a team name during purchase?
The team name fields in the purchase window allow you to purchase diagnostics for more than one team at a time and to keep each team separate and organized. If you have only one team for which you are making purchases, simply assign the same team name for each selected diagnostic. You will be able to change any team’s name after the purchase process.
