Team Signals
Working with a team that's unsure where to go next?
We can help!
If you’re looking to pinpoint where to focus your team’s development, Team Signals offers a clear, evidence-based starting point.
A practical research-backed tool, it turns team feedback into a clear action plan through eight powerful questions - like “Who are we?” and “How effective are we?” - designed to spark strategic reflection, strengthen team alignment and elevate performance.
Based on the High Energy Teams framework that lies at the heart of the TMS approach, it helps teams quickly identify what’s working, what’s missing and where to focus first.
What is Team Signals?
A multi-rater diagnostic built around the High-Energy Teams team effectiveness model, Team Signals helps you develop targeted, actionable strategies to enhance collaboration and drive high performance.
It uses eight strategic questions to assess how a team is functioning now - and where they need to focus next. The report provides a clear, data-informed snapshot of a team’s development priorities, providing a roadmap for action, alignment and sustainable performance.
Each team member receives a personalised report that captures their unique perspective on the team’s strengths and areas for growth. Individual responses are then combined into a 360-degree team report that you can use as the basis for team discussions around alignment, clarity and development needs.
