Assessing Team Leader Effectiveness gives managers and supervisors a methodology for gathering information about their leadership proficiency. This tool assesses leadership effectiveness on seven competencies: Leader (creating an inspiring vision of the future that motivates people to excel); Results Catalyst (helping teams and individuals improve performance and get good results); Facilitator (effectively facilitating team meetings and group interaction); Barrier Buster (running interference and removing barriers that hamper the team's effectiveness); Business Analyzer (having a broad awareness of the business); Coach (teaching others and helping them develop their potential); and Living Example (serving as a role model for others).

Assessing Distance Manager Effectiveness is designed to help those managing remote teams evaluate their effectiveness in establishing the team and in coaching and developing individual team members. It assesses competencies in using communication technology, creating a collaborative work environment, and dealing with the special challenges unique to virtual teams.

Assessing Virtual Team Effectiveness allows virtual teams to evaluate their effectiveness in working across space, time and culture. This assessment evaluates the teams' use of communication technology, problem solving, decision-making, role clarification, on-boarding processes for new employees and other key activities that ensure virtual team effectiveness.

Assessing Team Maturity allows leaders and team members to assess the effectiveness of their group in areas such as decision-making, problem solving, customer awareness, and teamwork.

Assessing Staff and Technical Expert Effectiveness provides those in staff and technical expert roles (i.e., members of staff organizations, individual contributors, those working primarily on project teams, and ad hoc members of natural work teams) with feedback on their contribution and effectiveness.
