Make two ways of working legible before delivery suffers.

Give project partners a roadmap for how each team gets work done. Use the framework at kickoff to make communication, decision rights, and planning expectations explicit.

Cross-team collaboration
USE THIS WHENTwo effective teams keep misreading each other’s communication, decisions, or pace
BUILT FORCross-functional leaders, project teams, and groups with important dependencies
THE OUTCOMEFind differences in working style before they slow the project.

MAKE THE PATTERN DISCUSSABLE

Start with what the team is experiencing.

Cross-team friction often comes from different expectations about how work should happen rather than bad intent. A shared framework lets both groups compare working styles and agree how they will collaborate.

A SIMPLE PLAYBOOK

From result to a better way of working.

The assessment creates the shared evidence. The web report and facilitation presentation help the team use it together.

  1. 01

    Describe each team

    Give both groups a concise view of their own defaults before discussing the relationship between them.

  2. 02

    Compare how the teams connect

    Focus on how information, decisions, and planning move from one team to the other.

  3. 03

    Design the handoffs

    Agree how the work will move between teams instead of hoping each side adapts silently.

THE RELEVANT DIMENSIONS

Put precise language around the work.

TeamDynamics describes four parts of team behavior. For this moment, these are especially useful places to begin.

START THE CONVERSATION

Three questions worth asking.

  1. 01

    Where are our teams most likely to interpret the same behavior differently?

  2. 02

    Who needs to be involved in which decisions—and when?

  3. 03

    What does a reliable handoff look like for both groups?
