Assessment
Tools: Multicultural Workgroup Effectiveness - Global Team Process
Questionnaire
(GTPQ)
The GTPQ assesses multicultural team
effectiveness in a
variety of areas including:
- Language
issues
- Cultural issues
It is
appropriate for existing multicultural
groups, whether domestic or international, dispersed or local. The GTPQ
is a
convenient on-line tool for repeated use that
identifies
developmental needs and
tracks
progress with metric comparison to similar teams in other regions or
sectors. It requires a facilitated debrief. While there
are a multitude of instruments that examine team composition and
effectiveness,
this one examines the influence of multicultural participation, and is
thus
particularly useful for global teams.
