9 Dimensions
A comprehensive team diagnostic that evaluates group health across nine specific areas like trust, conflict, and commitment. It provides a visual 'map' of where the team is strong and where they need to focus their development.
To facilitate a deep-dive retrospective on team dynamics and interpersonal relationships.
Solves: Vague feelings of 'team issues' without a clear way to diagnose or discuss them.
- 1
Step 1: Introduce the 9 dimensions (e.g., Trust, Goals, Roles, Leadership, etc.) (10 mins).
- 2
Step 2: Individuals privately rate the team on a scale of 1-10 for each dimension (10 mins).
- 3
Step 3: Plot the individual scores on a shared radar chart to see the spread (10 mins).
- 4
Step 4: Facilitate a discussion on the dimensions with the lowest scores or the widest spread (30-60 mins).
- The 'spread' (difference between high and low scores) is often more interesting than the average score.
- Ensure a safe environment where people feel they can be honest with their ratings.
- Can be adapted to '6 Dimensions' for a shorter, more focused session.
