New book: Hybrid Teams

Leading Groups with the Team Compass

What is the secret to a great team? The way you collaborate. Strangely enough, we hardly pay attention to this. With the Team Compass, you have a unique tool at your disposal to easily map out the team process: score the four components of the model in the book, and you’ll have a complete team evaluation.

Making professional teams even better is our mission. A successful team leads to a successful company, and that’s what we aim to do by teaching teams the fundamentals of group dynamics. The guiding philosophy comes from Rupert and Bregje Spijkerman, father and daughter, who co-authored the book Navigate Your Team to Success. The method enables teams to understand each other more quickly and intervene earlier to stay on track and achieve their goals.

In this practical book, you’ll find an explanation of how to best lead teams and how to kickstart team communication. The Team Compass is, among other things, based on a scientific analysis of group dynamic processes within teams.

As a manager and professional, you spend half of your workweek collaborating with colleagues: meetings, executing projects, putting out fires. That’s quite a lot! A lot of energy is lost in team processes we don’t really understand. Time for action. Quickly evaluate where you stand as a team, how decisions are made, how innovation happens, and how learning takes place. Test it in your daily practice.
