Team Management Systems (TMS) has an international reputation for its work-based feedback Profiles, models and concepts. More than 8000 network members are accredited worldwide to use TMS products, resulting in thousands of applications workshops being run each year. Our success lies in the performance improvement and ROI (return on investment) that comes from our range of applications focused on all aspects of teamwork. We have built an international track record of being the preferred approach when it comes to improving teams.

This collection of key session designs comes from experienced Team Management Systems network members and master trainers. With contributors from Australia, North America, Germany, Switzerland, England, Brazil, Lebanon, Singapore, Japan and New Zealand we are confident that this resource will become a key tool in planning and delivering workshops, courses and programs with the Team Management Profile as their focus.

The volume is divided into core and applications-based designs. There are three Core Session Designs which give the basic structure for preparing participants to complete the Team Management Profile Questionnaire and show how to feed back the Profile in either one-on-one or group sessions.

There are over 30 Applications-based Designs covering specialist areas such as personal and leadership development, team performance review, time management, coaching, effective meetings, team dynamics, blended learning, experiential learning, action-coaching, action-learning and webinars/teleconferencing.

Core Session Designs

Core session designs start with the process of completing the profile questionnaires and establishing the objectives and business drivers for the upcoming development workshop. Two further session designs cover a basic process for delivering Profile feedback in either one-on-one or group sessions.

Core session designs included in this volume are:

• Introductory Session: Profile questionnaire and concepts
• Group Feedback: Profiles and action-planning
• Individual Feedback: Profiles and PLAPs

Applications-based Designs

Application-based designs apply the Team Management Profile information and associated models to real issues facing individuals and teams. Sessions focus on both the individual (career journeys, talent management, five-factor feedback, executive development) and the team (creating team synergy, developing team dynamics, project innovation, performance review). Several sessions focus on developing leaders and describe a variety of education processes such as experiential learning, blended learning, action-coaching and action-learning. Some of these designs position the Profile in the spectrum of general leadership theory and application models. Several designs cover important communication applications (power to persuade, colored meetings, customer relations) and a design for delivery to virtual teams is also included.
