Military-Grade Teamwork™

For Maximum Quality of Team Contribution

Teamwork: The Missing Link

The military is often seen as the benchmark for high-trust, high-performing teams, where a shared mission, clear roles, and mutual support reduce team division and prevent team drift. A team’s ability to contribute with focus, precision, and purpose, under pressure and in service of the mission, comes from one powerful principle: everyone looks out for each other.

Now imagine bringing that same clarity and connection to the teams doing your (and their) most important work.

From Experience to Application

Rooted in the principle of Looking Out For Each Other, the Team Tool was developed with direct support from a diverse mix of expertise, including senior military leaders. That input shaped a system built from lived experience, measuring and strengthening the foundations that make high-quality contribution possible:

  • clear expectations
  • focused delivery
  • mutual accountability
  • shared situational awareness
  • ability to adapt

All of it is operationalised through a single performance standard: Quality of Contribution™ (QoC).

From Principle to Performance

The Team Tool enables teams to maintain the core elements of performance: cohesion, alignment, and readiness to contribute at full capacity.

It makes the conditions that drive contribution visible, measurable, and manageable, especially when teams are under pressure to deliver.

Contribution only holds when people are not just focused on their tasks, but on helping others stay focused on theirs.

Closest to Value Creation

The Team Tool tracks three forces that determine team effectiveness:

  • Division: How cohesive or fragmented the team is
  • Drift: Whether effort is aligned with shared goals
  • Quality of Contribution™ (QoC): A team’s capacity to deliver maximum value

QoC is perhaps the most powerful leading indicator of team performance. It shows whether the team is in a position to contribute meaningfully, before momentum is lost and the mission starts to drift.

Team Tool Advantages

What the Team Tool Enables:

  • Spot problems in how the team is working, before they impact delivery
  • See clearly when people are pulling in different directions
  • Know when the team is starting to lose focus, trust, or momentum
  • Take action while there’s still time to fix it
