Virtual Team Readiness and Health Assessment

Unifying Teams Regardless of Location

Managing innovation is challenging enough when you're dealing with a staff who work together under one roof. Add multiple off-site locations, consulting partners, and contractors to the mix and it can become downright difficult. Yet in today's global, technology-driven marketplace, it's more important than ever that even far-flung teams learn to work together to embrace innovation management.
 
It's likely that your company needs to make improvements in this area. But before you do, you'll want to find out how ready your virtual team is to move forward with applying best practice of virtual teaming. The CIMS Virtual Team Readiness and Health Assessment provides a unique view into the IM health of disparate teams and can provide the basis for encouraging and unifying innovation across all team members, regardless of their location or role. The toolkit includes 28 assessments built around 7 critical success factors, as well as training and facilitation in the following areas: leader and member competence audits, technology planning, trust behaviors, and interventions. 
 
The Virtual Team Readiness and Health Assessment will:

• Measure trust behaviors or the lack thereof across your organization
• Empower team members at all levels to be solution-driven
• Determine if your communications technology is really working
• Enable you to plan effective interventions

This powerful and effective assessment was developed by a CIMS faculty member, Dr. Mitzi Montoya, Zelnak Professor of Marketing Innovation at NC State University, and CIMS Researcher, Dr. Anne Massey, Lilly Faculty Fellow of Information Systems, Indiana University, and supported by CIMS.
