Successful
team members don't do the same thing at the same time. They do the
right thing at the right time. And while team members work together
toward a common goal, individuals still must play their individual
roles in the process. As organizations rely more and more on teams
to innovate, problem-solve, produce, and compete at the speed of
change, clearly understanding and capitalizing on individual
approaches to group processes is the bottom line on creating high
performance teams.

the Right Roles for the Right People
The Team Dimensions
Profileidentifies four key roles in innovative team performance:
Creator:
Generates original concepts, goes beyond the obvious, and sees the
big picture. Hands off tasks to an Advancer.
Advancer:
Recognizes new opportunities, develops ways to promote ideas, and
moves toward implementation. Hands off tasks to a Refiner.
Refiner:
Challenges and analyzes ideas to detect potential problems and may
hand plans back to an Advancer or Creator before handing off tasks
to an Executor.
Executor:
Lays the groundwork for implementation, manages the details, and
moves the process to completion.
The profile uses
the “Z Process” to map the flow of assigning roles, completing
tasks, and handing off tasks to other team members. Using the four Team
Dimensions Profile’s roles in the “Z Process” gets
new teams moving forward quickly and gets current teams unstuck.
