Our method allows for the exploitation of existing team strengths and the identification of
ineffective operational patterns. The methodology also supports the creation of new teams
and the selection of team members who can collaborate effectively.
Problem it solves
In many companies, the focus has shifted from individuals to teams in recent decades because
colleagues can achieve more together than individually. However, several factors influence team
performance, with one of the most important being harmony and collaboration among team members.
Problems: Stagnation within the team, recurring conflicts, recurring and difficult-to-change
behavioral patterns, obstacles to effective collaboration, and communication difficulties.
Target To strengthen team dynamics and team development, by using the LIFO method to
understand how your colleagues work, you receive immediate tips on how to
approach them. Additionally, you can learn what to emphasize during a
presentation or demo, depending on the target audience, thus facilitating
communication and collaboration. By completing the LIFO questionnaire, the team
can improve and strengthen, leading to enhanced team performance and morale.
Realization
During the assessment phase, individual assessments are conducted, where each team member
completes a personalized Life Orientations (LIFO) questionnaire. The resulting reports are
discussed individually with the participants, allowing colleagues to become acquainted with the
LIFO approach and receive their analysis (35+ pages). Independently from individual feedback, we
create the team profile, enabling a collective interpretation of the results.
Through a collaborative workshop with the team, we explore the most outstanding results,
including the team's strengths and development potential. We examine how colleagues can work
more effectively together and identify hidden sources of conflict within the team.
Supporting Steps:
Creating individual LIFO assessments
Providing individual LIFO feedback to each team member, where they become familiar with
the LIFO system and can interpret their own and the team's analysis
Creating the team LIFO profile based on individual profiles
Processing the LIFO team analysis and determining development opportunities through a
collaborative workshop with the team
The entire process deepens the team's level of trust, enhances colleagues' understanding of
their own and others' behaviors, and enables more effective communication among themselves and
with external colleagues and stakeholders.

Our main methods and tools The processing of results is always tailored to you and the team, ensuring that
the key behavioral patterns are collectively addressed, resulting in unique
solutions.
Our main tools include the LIFO questionnaire, group dynamics analysis,
identification and interpretation of the five levels of conflict management for
the team and key stakeholders, and the SCARF model, through which we develop
personalized team development for you.
Realizable benefits
Understanding individual behavioral patterns, as well as interpreting and developing them at the
team level, helps deepen the level of trust within the team. In the case of new teams, it
facilitates a faster transition through the storming-forming phases, aids in understanding and
processing conflicts, and enhances the team's ability to collaborate effectively and solve
problems. Essentially, our approach leads to the creation of a more motivated atmosphere.
