Not every group is a team. True teamwork requires the right conditions: shared goals, interdependent tasks, continuous interaction, and distributed responsibility. Without these, “team development” initiatives risk backfiring — leading to frustration or a sense of going nowhere.
The GDQ Checklist helps you answer the crucial question: does this group actually function as a team? It highlights whether the prerequisites for teamwork are in place, and if investing in development is the right move.
Available free of charge to anyone with GDQ certification, the checklist lives on our My GDQ Management platform — a practical, research-informed tool for making development both intentional and impactful.
