Organisations today are very aware of the need for teams to operate as cohesive units. The business benefits are obvious. Teams in poor “collaborative health” fail persistently and the consequences of divisive and inappropriate behaviours, if left unchecked, can damage relationships elsewhere.

Using unique tools TPI programmes enable teams to go beyond polite co-operation. They focus teams on unity of purpose and commitment to common goals seeking at the same time to optimise individual strengths to achieve maximum business gain.

The programmes teach users how to define common goals and explore ways of establishing efficient team communication processes internally and externally.

TPI facilitators are skilled at getting teams to go way beyond what they may have done before. They challenge teams and individuals to address problem issues and concerns, leading them to formulate planned action to effect lasting changes.

In particular, the TPI approach has been instrumental in effecting positive change with new teams, or after mergers and acquisitions. Typically in such a scenario a new business plan is hastily pulled together, but it can take months or years for the team to function capably. The TPI Collaborative Health Check™ accelerates the process, often with amazing results.

Programme features

Using unique TPI software online you can:

• Conduct detailed analysis of the core differences that are obstructing truly effective collaboration.
• Assess the reports to determine what steps are needed within the team to develop excellent collaborative relationships and interdependence that will deliver the business goals that have been set.
• Work with TPI consultants to identify what needs to be done and by when to make substantial performance improvements. What needs to be stopped and what should be kept because it is working well?

How your organisation benefits

• Our considerable experience has shown that teams that learn the principles at the heart of these programmes are much more likely to become self-managing, behaviour-oriented and results focused.
• As a result, “People Issues” are far less intrusive in everyday business because individuals have a greater understanding of the skills and experiences that each brings to the team and adds to the work place.

Evidence has shown repeatedly that our approach encourages greater cross-functional collaboration. Customers notice the difference and tend to view the organisation far more favourably.

In sales situations there are many proof points that show conclusively how clients have won larger contracts because their customers appreciated the collaborative and co-operative face of the teams with whom they have engaged.
