Tri-Dimensional Model of Team Development™

Certain aspects of teamwork must be firmly in place before any team can be successful. TRACOM's award-winning Tri-Dimensional Model of Team Development™ describes the three essential components for maximum team performance:

• Leadership: the process of focusing the team in a common direction, balancing control and freedom.
• Relationships: the level of care, respect, concern and help extended to team members, balancing support and candor.
• Methods: the procedures used to organize, structure and enhance the team's work, balancing consistency and flexibility.

These elements are at the heart of TRACOM's Orchestrating Team Performance (OTP) program. Integration into daily team interactions will generate focus, interdependence and innovation.

Phases of Team Development

  Our research reveals that all teams go through three distinct steps in their
  path to effectiveness. They begin as a collection of people, develop into a
  team directed by the leader, and eventually become a self-directed, mature
  team. All teams pass through these stages of development, but the
  requirements to evolve will change with each phase and competency.

 TRACOM's unique approach to team performance blends skill development
 with an understanding of the team's current phase. This adaptive approach creates a custom training environment, meeting each team where they are to lead them to greater performance.
