Structure, team dynamics & decision-making

7. How clearly are processes and responsibilities defined in your organisation?

Please select an option.

8. What would happen if a key person (in leadership or a critical admin role) were out of action for an extended period from tomorrow?

Everything would carry on seamlessly; cover and processes are clearly defined. There would be noticeable delays, but others would somehow pick up the slack. Critical knowledge and decision-making authority sit with that person alone; we would have a real problem.

Please select an option.

9. If knowledge, decisions or contacts depend heavily on individuals: which areas are mainly affected?

10. How would you describe the current culture of decision-making and collaboration in your team?

Decisions are made swiftly and everyone stands behind them. Decisions are often put off because the necessary clarity or courage is missing. Friction or unspoken conflicts are holding back constructive collaboration. Processes and behaviours have simply evolved over time rather than been deliberately designed.
