Building trust with your team is more than your IQ, EQ, or SQ. It requires developing your TQ.


Your ability to:


  1. Select, develop, and engage your team members

  2. Build cohesive, goal-oriented teams

  3. Achieve sustained results


This is what defines effective leadership. Many leadership discussions stop at IQ and EQ, but if you want your teams to be delivering for your customers and stakeholder. You must also develop your TQ. Your Team Effectiveness Quotient.


To strengthen your TQ:


  1. Follow a proven roadmap for your team. Move intentionally from current state to desired outcomes, avoiding random activities that don’t connect.

  2. Get feedback regularly. Benchmark your team’s progress using reliable tools like theTeam Assessment Survey©.

  3. Apply proven methods. Use tested strategies that address real team issues early and prevent disengagement or turnover.


Teams fix teams by doing real work together. The sooner you start measuring and improving your TQ, the faster trust and performance grow.
