Collaboration and teamwork: Create the best conditions for successful team performance
When we work in teams, the goal is for the end result of the project to be better (or the task completed faster/more efficiently/more creatively) than if only one person was working on the same task. Fundamental6 er et profilværktøj, der understøtter en gruppe i at opnå fælles resultater ved at give gruppen et fælles sprog omkring gruppens styrker og udviklingspotentialer.
Our starting point is that team members need to understand both themselves and others. The Fundamental6 profile helps the group articulate why one person chooses to work in a certain way while others prefer a different approach, as well as the impact this difference has on collaboration and efficiency. In addition, the profile provides valuable insight into what is needed to optimize collaboration.
Through constructive dialog and practical application of this knowledge, a foundation is created to increase group well-being, efficiency and relationships. Having a common language and framework of understanding helps to increase awareness of communication between members and each individual’s role in the team.

Get AI reports tailored to your team
Team development is about both getting to know yourself better in relation to the team and gaining a better understanding of the team as a whole. As a new offering on the market, we’ve compiled the entire team’s personality profiles into a single overview: What comes easily to the team? Where do team members misunderstand one another? And what could they benefit from experimenting with?
In PeopleTools’ AI module, you can generate group reports and get insights into the team’s overall dynamics. There are customized resources for both:
- Employee Teams
- Management Teams
- Duo
When the profile report hits the mark, the workshop can start somewhere else
“I’ve highlighted everything in my report, because there’s nothing in it that isn’t accurate.”
We receive this kind of feedback from our users, who use AI reports to prepare. And that’s important! When participants recognize themselves in the report, the first hour doesn’t have to be spent discussing whether the profile is accurate. This sense of recognition builds immediate trust in the tool, allowing participants to engage fully in the conversation rather than feeling the need to defend themselves.
With the right start and an easy-to-understand, credible profiling tool, you’ll have the best foundation for a learning workshop. The conversation begins with “What are we going to do about this?” rather than “Does this even apply?”
And the few areas where the report falls short? Those also make for good conversation. As always with PeopleTools, the report is a starting point for dialogue, not a list of definitive answers.
Applications and Benefits of PeopleTools Fundamental6
The PeopleTools Fundamental6 profile has many uses, and not just to strengthen an existing group’s collaboration. The profile tool can be used when putting together well-functioning teams, starting new collaborations in projects and teams, developing existing groups or preventively in connection with major changes that can affect the relationships in the group.
At the same time, profiling tools can be applied to teams at all organizational levels, even very small groups with 2 or 3 members.
Each member of the group gains knowledge and insight about themselves and can then better take responsibility for their own actions for the benefit of the group’s well-being and efficiency: “What can I do to make the team better?”.
In addition, the PeopleTools Fundamental6 profile can be used in recruitment. The group’s shared profile can be used as a starting point to determine which personal factors and competencies the group needs to strengthen.

PeopleTools Team Roles
The personality profile provides clear insight into how each individual typically contributes to the team’s tasks and collaboration. The team roles make it even easier to translate that insight into a shared discussion about role allocation, responsibilities, and collaboration.
With eight distinct roles, the team gains a clearer framework for identifying which contributions come naturally, where multiple team members take on the same role, and what the team would benefit from being more conscious of bringing to the table.
