Self-Assessment 8.3: Evaluate Your Team Member
Effectiveness
Use this measure to evaluate your own effectiveness. To do this, complete the assessment answering each item in terms of the extent you agree that you do each. Then calculate averages for each of the five competencies by determining the sub-total for each competency and then dividing this number by the number of items in each competency. This will show you the relative strength of your team competencies.
Improve the value of this measure further still by evaluating yourself in terms of your effectiveness in a particular team (school, work, or other organization). Then, have a member of that same team evaluate you. Compare your scores with those given by your teammates, identify the consistent scores and those that differ, and use this feedback to improve your own team member effectiveness.
