TEAM PERFORMANCE MODEL

Comprehensive model of team performance that shows the predictable stages involved
in both creating and sustaining teams. The Drexler/Sibbet Team Performance Model
illustrates team development as seven stages, four to create the team and three to
describe increasing levels of sustained performance.
This powerful tool for developing and sustaining teams can be used as a framework
and common language for supporting a team-based culture.

Biography: Visual teams, David Sibbet

GOLDEN CIRCLE IN LEADERSHIP

Simon Sinek consider that the balance of the Clarity of Why, the discipline of How, and
the consistency of What gives us Authenticity. When we say and do things that we
believe.
Probably is a simple idea codify all we do in 3 layers: Why? How? What? But the
reflection behind this is huge and useful. This little idea explains why some
organizations and some leaders are able to inspire where others arent.

the way we work todays is REALITY.

African democracy: The thing isnt to vote and take a decision. We
should, using the dialogue as a tool, empathise and understand others
in order to take the right decision. Its important this to be a win-win

How do we feel?

I feel we had lot of fun, best way to have fun and exploring new things
and building things out of nothing. We have done a great job
I feel good because I have been expressing my self
I feel worry because we havent done everything as a team
What we have planed went really well. Its brilliant!
It was exciting, but luck of organization. It was crazy how everyone
started to paint by his own
I feel a little bit of chaos
There werent clear leaders
At first team was not a team decision
When I was painting I forgot about everything
Everyone was helping each other
We are all a team and the leaders were not the ones who had to lead
We have learn working all as a team
I love it , but it was a really chaos, if we took a decision we need to go
forward and finish
Congrats because you finished. Remember that working as a team is
harder but you will go further
If we have a game to play, we have to play, and if we are not doing it we
are braking the rules

Think different.

What have I learnt?

What would I change the next time or which are the next steps?

LEARN

GOOD

BAD

LEARNED

DIFFERENT / NEXT

DO

If we learn and get actions in the process

we will progress faster, that means that
we will be a better company: more money,
more
sells,
more
actions,
more
innovation

Constant learning is the key

Team Motorola
GOOD

BAD

Team bonding (all minds coming

together and in the same way)
Good communication
Friendly environment
Contribution of all Team work
We enjoy
Coordination of the people
Meet new and lot of people
Learning new things about business
plan
Interacting with different cultures
We get out from the comfort zone
Working in a global team to create a
project
Travelling a cross the city
We know and see that with less
money things are possible
Confidence with team mates
We learn bit of Spanish
Exchanging culture and ideas
Travelling bay our own
Going with Spanish people was good
because everyone wants to take a pic
with them
Stanford challenge
Make plans before going out
Really emotional thing when we talk
with the security guy
Sometime when we want to do
something extraordinary we think that
we need lot of resources, but actually
we have seen that things depend on
us
Amazing things happen outside the
box
Spicy up! Get dirty!
Do the never

Lack of interest
Not enough time to create ideas
Lack of coordination in the
presentation
Finally some staff was made
individually
The rickshaw guy made 6km more
Negotiating was a bit poor, I could
done better
I did not earn money and we had a
goal
When we were doing graphite we
were as children: really crazy
It was difficult to ask for money
The presentation
The communication, we wanted to say
something and then we did not say
really good.
Lack of coordination
Lack of time management
It was difficult to communicate with
people from the street
Different meanings each of us, bad
communication
We could save more time
So much ideas
Did we try enough to get money? Or
did we fail enough?

LEARN

Take everything, give anything back

Fail, fail again, fail better
Try as many times as you can
Earning money is not easy
Business model (new tools)
Spanish (bit)
If you are not from India, the rickshaw
will charge you more
With the right attitude you will achieve
the goals
New ideas and new way of doing
things
Design thinking, 5Es
Communication skill (languages)
Team dynamics
You need to be extremely clear what
you want or need to achieve
Convince people to give you money
The message is more important than
the language
Doing graffiti is not as easy as I
thought
The power of mixing people, the power
of diversity
Lets break more walls
Sharing feeling and knowledge is the
key
The more you apply, the more you feel
and learn
MINN team is really empathic with the
Spanish team, you have humble really
good with them
People from Spain feel as Basque not
or Europeans

CHANGE
In the presentation we will prepare
more the pitching
Be on the same page
Think in a different, more creative way
What ever you have in mind, just do it,
start with the action.
Forget about the individual concept,
and think as a team
Reflect more about the things that I
can give or show
Coordination
Graffiti
New languages more in deep
We have to fail a lot, but once you
realize that the foot is in the wrong
place, take it out as fast as you can.
How can we collaborate with others?
You can hack the programme,
everything depends on you.
The informal moments are important

Team learning process, it has been good to work with MTA entrepreneurs. It was
really good time, and today was really epic.
Really proud of me and my team. We sold an idea to the customer. Having an Idea,
white paper and Midas card helps talking to people.
This days made me get out from the comfort zone. I learnt how to talk to the people,
and now I feel comfortable talking to them. Thank you
Out of the comfort zone. If you have an idea, go out and pitch or share it. Thats the
way it works. I will pitch the product to different people across the city.
I learnt a lot and I get out from the comfort zone.
Good tandem exited to follow working.
A really good experience. Full or learning mixing people and showing them the city.
Team dynamics. We changed the strategy and instead of earning 0 we invoiced
5700. That was amazing.
Humility and to be with the right attitude. Happy because we have made the first
prototype of the project.
We started with nothing and we went somewhere. Thanks of the good team work
we made a really good work. You need to make your hands dirty.
If we take a direction we need to finish.
Everything depends on the attitude that we have.
We need to go out from the box. Good because we have a good relation and we will
share more things from now on.
Mix the team, you will learn a lot.
Thank you for each one of you. You are the first one MTA MINN Pune lab and this is
just the beginning , Learning happen when we put in practise.
