TAKE YOUR TEAM TO THE NEXT LEVEL
teamorama is not just a scientific tool for team development but a compass for strong teamwork. With a short assessment, you will find out what your team really needs to work together even better – effectively, focused and with more joy. The results of the assessment (“teamorama insights”) show where your team stands, and which specific steps will take your team to the next level.
EASY, EVIDENCE-BASED & EFFECTIVE
teamorama is an easy-to-use and evidence-based tool for team analysis. It enables your team to communicate more effectively and improve teamwork. It can be used as a team development tool (teamorama classic) or as an organizational development tool (teamorama business) and is particularly suitable in the context of New Work or after changes in the team. The assessment is available in two languages (German and English) and is therefore particularly suitable for multilingual teams.

inspirations – Ideas for Implementation
teamorama is an assessment tool that managers and their teams can use anonymously to analyze their strengths and needs and identify potential areas for improvement.
teamorama insights contain customized, evidence-based recommendations for action to take your team to the next level – from availability to team spirit.
Availability
Our studies show that availability is more important for teamwork than how much team members work from home. If teams discuss limiting work from home, this often means that there is an issue with availability. If it is clear when and how I can reach the other team members, it is less important where they work. To work together effectively, there needs to be a common understanding of availability. If it is clear how and when you can be reached, then requests outside of working hours can be avoided more easily. When we share our understanding, performance and coordination generally improve. It also helps to quicken the decision making process and reduces uncertainty in a team.
Team communication
Communicating effectively is often a challenge for teams, especially if the team members are not working in the same place at the same time or if the composition of the team changes. When communication within a team works well, conflicts and misunderstandings decrease. Effective team communication promotes interpersonal relationships, avoids duplication and facilitates joint planning. Communication is therefore essential for team performance and organizational success. At the TU, we have developed our own questionnaire on team communication, which has been shown to measure the relevant dimensions for effective team collaboration.
Team spirit
Team spirit is a multi-layered concept that encompasses many aspects at the team level – from the relationships between team members, building trust and finding common ground to constructive conflict resolution and promoting mutual tolerance. Building team spirit is always a challenge, especially in times of New Work and modern communication technology. Team spirit is closely linked to availability and communication. It is important to first understand these concepts and discuss them within the team to really understand their interconnectedness. When team spirit is thriving, it reflects positively on the team’s interpersonal dynamics, leading to improved performance and increased frequency of productive interactions. Recognizing the close connection between team spirit and communication is crucial for its strengthening.
