Team Effectiveness Questionnaire (TEQ)

The TEQ, now available in versions 1.0 and 2.0 in either paper or online formats, provides the data you need for focused and effective team development.  It measures your team against the five essential attributes of a high performing team.  It provides a snapshot of the team in its current stage of development and pinpoints opportunities for improvement. Administered to all members of the team, the TEQ is an excellent tool for promoting discussion and designing team development initiatives.

Features/Benefits

TEQ 1.0
© Matt Starcevich, PhD
  • 50 items in "True/False" format: quicker and easier for team members to complete.
  • Measures the team against the five essential attributes of a high performing team; identifies which area(s) is most in need of attention.
  • Utilizes "negative" language, e.g., "The people on our team do not care deeply about our purpose and direction."  "It is hard for team members to provide input and influence the leader of my team."  For teams where morale is already low, team members can more easily identify with the sentiments.
  • If team members are reluctant to "bring up the issues," the assessment's forced choice format (an item is either basically true or basically false) pushes the group to take a stand and identify its chief concerns.

TEQ 2.0

  • 110 items rated on a 1-10 scale + 2 items short answer
  • Assesses the team on discrete categories within the five essential attributes, e.g., under "Direction," 5 items specifically address "Core Mission, Vision and Values" and an additional 11 items consider the team's "Objectives."  "Processes" are further sub-divided and examined under the headings "Meetings," "Decision-Making," "Conflict Resolution," etc.
  • Employs "positive" language, e.g., " Our team has a written mission statement."  "I believe our objectives are reasonable and obtainable."
  • The assessment's greater length and depth, as well as it Lickert-scale format, provide for a more detailed and nuanced understanding of the team's perception of its strengths and issues.
  • Sample (PDF format)

Each TEQ is available in both paper and online formats.
