Visual Team Builder

By Frank Mulligan - Recruit China

Itís a slow Saturday here in China Ö time to kick back and relax.

Thanks to Bruce Lewin for this demo introduction to the ideas behind 4G. This is a fantastic system that allows you to map out the relationships between team members and to understand the level of productivity in these relationships.

So sit back and relax, and take a look at the Visual Team Builder.

It has a mathematical purity and simplicity to it that makes it a delight to watch. If you like what you see then you can find out more details at the Four Groups blog. It seems a great fit for hiring.

According to Bruce, who is based in the UK, there is currently no method to successfully predict the impact that a new hire has on existing team members. While it is possible to test candidates for skills, aptitude and personality, none of these approaches guarantees good relationships or good fit between team members and newly appointed people.

His system provides a means to understand and more importantly, predict human relationships or ëpeople compatibilityí.

It is easy to see that there are many ways that 4G can be applied, and my focus on recruitment is just an obvious starting point. I would suspect that it is even more useful for retention.
