Building high-performing, resilient teams

Working with individuals

We run team performance sessions based on the Me.TalentScan profiling system. It’s a brilliantly fast and effective way of fully understanding and leveraging the talents within a team.

Me.TalentScan

The ME.TalentScan test is based on the work of Carl Jung, one of the legendary figures of modern psychology. It has this in common with many other psychometric tests. The Me.TalenScan is a new and unique test, in that it explores both the conscious and subconscious psychology of its subjects. It does this through the innovative use of both images and text.

Insights

Me.TalentScan reveals inherent talents and identifies if they are fully developed or not. Further it identifies adaptive behaviours and whether they are blocking the development of natural talents. The final key insight is uncovering the sensitivities and pitfalls that are having a negative impact on performance. Over time, natural talents can be forgotten and we find ourselves demonstrating ‘adapted behaviours’. This is where we naturally feel less confident: we have to put more energy into delivering results and so become less effective when placed under pressure.

“I’m a scientist and I was not confident that Talent Scan would say much of interest. What staggered me was how the process could characterise me so accurately. I have benefited hugely by making more conscious choices.”

“We used the ME.TalentScan with all of the candidates we were interviewing for our CEO role. It helped the candidates better understand their skills and provided the interview panel with more clarity on who would be the best fit for the organisation. We will use the process again widely across the organisation.”

Working with teams

By combining the TalentScans of several people from a team or group we can gain insights about how they work together and how the team as a whole interacts with people from outside the group.

The differences and similarities between people’s unconscious preferences will always surface in the dynamics of their preferred styles of communication, leadership, role and task completion, leading either to synergy or conflict.

We.TalentScan

We.TalentScan enables team members to become aware of the qualities and talents of individual team members present as well as the mutual dynamics. It reveals factors that enhance and inhibit team performance as well as actions for improving the team composition, balance, culture, development, coaching, and performance. By highlighting the unique value that can best be brought by each team member, it strengthens trust, improves the assignment of roles (to align with natural talents), and leads to better awareness and performance both of individual team members and the team.

Once your team has completed the Me.TalentScan, these scans are combined to create a We.TalentScan team profile report. From there all training programmes and coaching can be highly focused to meet each individual and the teams needs, ensuring that any investment of resources has the highest possible positive impact on performance.
