For teams

The team survey: everyone rates everyone, then you talk about it.

Everyone on the team rates everyone else on things they actually saw happen — and rates themselves, and predicts how the others rated them. The gap between those three is usually the most useful number in the whole report, and no self-report tool can produce it.

  • 3–12 people
  • 25–40 minutes each
  • $199 per run
  • Results in three pieces
  • 60-minute debrief included

Costs nothing to set up. No card. Only you sign in; your team answers from a link.

A run, start to finish

  1. Set up the team

    Three to twelve people, each with a personal link by email. Nobody creates an account, sets a password, or sees a dashboard — only the lead or facilitator signs in.
  2. Everyone answers, about 25 minutes each on a team of five

    Specific observable behaviors over the last three months — never personality — plus questions about the team’s climate, who you actually go to, your own self-rating, and your prediction of how the others rated you.
  3. Results come back in three pieces

    A team pack everyone sees, a private note for each person, and a facilitator view if your team has named one. Scoring runs once 75% of the team has submitted.
  4. You run the debrief

    A 60-minute agenda built from your own results, ending in two or three commitments specific enough to check in six weeks.

The number no self-report can produce

Three views of the same person come back from every run: how you rated yourself, how you predicted your teammates would rate you, and how they actually did. Most people’s self-rating sits above the other two; the interesting cases are the ones where the prediction is far from the peers’ view — a person who expects to be seen one way and is seen another.

That is not a verdict. It is the most specific conversation-starter a team can be given, and it is private to the person it is about. Why the gap exists, and what to do with it.

What comes back

The team sees the team

Climate scores with agreement and spread, the network picture of who the team actually goes to, and the meeting agenda. No individual is named or ranked anywhere in it.

You see yourself

What your teammates see you doing well, one thing to work on, and how your self-view compared with theirs. Your note is not sent to your manager and is not readable by your team lead, your workspace owner, or anyone else with an account.

A facilitator, if you name one

A named facilitator sees each person’s note before it is released and can hold it back; if nobody is named, nobody can open that view.

Six weeks on, a two-minute pulse

The commitments the team recorded come back as questions: how far has each one happened, and how do two things feel now. Team counts only, sent to everyone at once, and included in the run.

Thin data is withheld, not padded. The report says when the team is divided instead of averaging the disagreement away. Every row of this table is read from the published instrument, not typed.

Handing a team its scores and walking away is the version most likely to do damage, and the structured conversation afterwards is the part the evidence supports. So the agenda ships in every run, built from your numbers, and the written packs are constrained on purpose: no trait adjectives, no ranking language, no speculation about why somebody behaves as they do.

Who can see what, in one screen

Your manager

The shared team pack, if they are on the team. Never your ratings, never your note.

Your team lead

Completion counts while the run is open; the team pack when it closes. Not your note.

A facilitator your team named

Each person’s note, before release, and only that person.

What it costs

ItemPriceIncludes
One run$199One team of 312, full results, private notes, written coaching pack, the debrief agenda, and the six-week pulse
A year of runs$349The same, for up to three teams, for twelve months

Setting the team up costs nothing and needs no card — the price is at the moment you open the run.

One thing the price never buys: your manager reading individual ratings. They are not readable by any account, so there is nothing to import into a review — whoever is paying.

Questions teams ask before a first run

How many people does a team survey need?
3 to 12. Everyone rates everyone, so a team of four means each person is rated by three teammates — the minimum for individual peer scores to exist. A team of three receives the team pack and the debrief agenda but no individual peer scores.
How long does it take?
About 25 minutes each on a team of five, about 40 on a team of 12, because everyone rates everyone, from a personal link whenever suits them. Scoring happens once 75% of the team has submitted. Setup takes minutes and needs no card.
What questions are asked?
16 behavior questions per teammate across 8 dimensions, 3 about trust and who you would work with, 2 short written ones, and 34 statements about the team's climate, a few more for teams working apart. Every item is published on request.
Can our manager read the results?
The team pack, yes — it names no individual. Individual ratings and private notes are not readable by any signed-in account, including your team lead and workspace owner. The one exception is a facilitator your team has named.
What happens after the debrief?
You record the two or three commitments with an owner and a check date. Six weeks later everyone answers a two-minute pulse: how far each one happened, and how safe and sustainable things feel now. The pulse is part of the run.
Is it anonymous?
It is confidential by design and we say so honestly: answers are tied to a person so nobody can answer twice, and individual answers have no read path. Below 3 raters nothing is shown; question-level detail needs 5.
