Team Playlist
"Team Playlist" is a fun team-building activity that uses assessments to help team members understand each other better. By exploring traits and preferences through tools like the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and the Big Five personality test, the game enhances empathy and communication. It combines personality insights with music tastes to create a unique playlist that celebrates diversity and strengthens team connections.
How to Play the Team Self-Assessment
Start with individual reflection before bringing everyone back together to debrief and see what you’re aligned on and what needs more work. By then narrowing these down to the most important elements, you can align and enable better co-working practices.
In "Team Self-Assessment," your journey begins with understanding the core components that define your team. This game utilizes a trio of assessments—behavioral, personality, and culture assessments—to shed light on individual and collective dynamics. These tools are designed to foster self-awareness, alignment, and team bonding, ultimately enabling more effective co-working practices. Get ready to dive deep into the unique attributes that each team member brings to the table and how these elements interact within the team environment.
Prepare for Team Playlist
Kick off the game with each team member completing three distinct assessments—behavioral, personality, and culture assessments. The behavioral assessment will help you understand how you naturally act in various situations. The personality assessment will uncover your intrinsic traits, while the culture assessment focuses on your values and how well they align with the team’s overall culture. Take your time with these assessments, as accurate self-reflection is crucial for the game's success.
Personal Debrief
Once the individual assessments are complete, each team member should take some time to reflect on their results. Identify key insights and note any surprises or confirmations of what you already knew. This is a moment for personal introspection, where you can understand how your behaviors, personality traits, and cultural values contribute to your role within the team. Write down your reflections and be prepared to share them in the next phase of the game.

Use Team Building Assessments for the Team Playlist game
Once the individual assessments are complete, each team member should take some time to reflect on their results. This reflection is crucial, as it allows individuals to dive deep into their own behaviors, personality traits, and cultural values, understanding how these elements weave into the fabric of the team's dynamic. Participants should aim to identify key insights that emerge from their assessments, noting any surprises that challenge their self-perceptions or reaffirmations of traits they already recognized. This introspective moment is not just about personal growth; it's about fostering an environment of openness and understanding within the team. By documenting these reflections, team members can clarify their thoughts, setting the stage for richer, more meaningful discussions in the next phase of the game. Sharing these insights with one another will not only enhance empathy among teammates but also cultivate a stronger, more cohesive team culture, where each member’s unique contributions are valued and leveraged for collective success.
