Using Insights Discovery to Improve Team Effectiveness
Our team at Tandem has partnered with hundreds of leaders across the United States and we are seeing major themes in leaders and teams that are ineffective and breaking down.
➡ Lack of self-awareness. More and more leaders lack the ability to listen and adapt. This essential trait involves having a deep understanding of your strengths and weaknesses, as well as having a strong understanding of the impact you have on others.
➡ Lack of effective communication. This is the cornerstone of any successful leader, but achieving it can be challenging. Misunderstandings, miscommunications, and conflicts all get in the way of progress and productivity.
It’s time for leaders to commit to building these key skills.
That’s where Insights Discovery comes in!
Insights Discovery is a psychometric tool based on Jungian psychology, which uses a four-color model to highlight key personality preferences and associated behaviors.
3 Ways Tandem Uses Insights Discovery
to improve team effectiveness:
Team Coaching
Co-founder Coaching
One-on-one Coaching
Each individual takes the Insights Discovery Assessment and receives their own report detailing personality preferences and associated behaviors. Then coaching begins!
Coaching is a powerful tool for improving self-awareness, effective communication, which creates a highly effective team.
Self-awareness: Self-awareness is the key to the success of every individual, and that’s exactly what Insights Discovery delivers. Using Insights Discovery, coaches help identify blind spots and areas for improvement. By shining a light on these areas, we help individuals develop strategies for growth and development. It helps leaders understand how they're perceived by others, and how to best communicate and motivate their team.
Effective communication: With Insights Discovery, leaders will gain an understanding of how to communicate with others, gain their trust, and increase team engagement. Coaching provides individuals with an opportunity to practice effective communication skills in a safe and supportive environment. We identify communication barriers, and develop strategies for overcoming whatever is getting in the way. Leaders learn how to adapt their communication style to meet the needs of the group, situation or goal.
By using Insights Discovery and working with a coach, leaders and teams develop the skills they need to succeed in today's complex and dynamic environment.
Whether you're a leader looking to understand your blind spots and enhance your skills or a team looking to achieve greater success, coaching can help you get there.
