Accelerate Team Performance with TAWDI

From data to action. Improve how your teams work together.

At Made From Within, we know that team dynamics directly affect organisational performance. That’s why we’ve added the Team and Workplace Dynamics Inventory (TAWDI) to our development offering. TAWDI is an evidence-based assessment designed to improve communication, decision-making, and conflict management.

As a TAWDI Certified Partner, we help teams at every level, from senior leaders to interns, identify the patterns that drive collaboration and results. Then we work with them to address challenges and build on strengths through targeted workshops, strategic planning, and ongoing coaching.

What Is TAWDI?

TAWDI is a science-based psychometric tool created by the team at Psychonomics. It combines research on team dynamics and personality with practical application, measuring both individual behaviours and team-level patterns that shape performance.

It evaluates 9 key factors including:

1.

Collaboration

Frequent team interaction and co-creation versus working independently.

2.

Leadership independence

Autonomy and minimal oversight versus close guidance and direction.

3.

Communication tendencies

How often and how deeply information is shared within the team.

4.

Affability

The degree to which team members are sociable, outgoing, and inclined to connect with colleagues.

5.

Decision-making

Decision-making tendencies, including how effective, quick, and confident decisions tend to be.

6.

Conflict Management

Comfort level, forgiveness, and assertiveness in handling disagreements.

7.

Grit & Resilience

The ability to stay committed to goals and recover after setbacks.

8.

Performance & Temporal Patience

Tolerance for slower progress and differing performance levels within the team.

9.

Social Intuition

The ability to feel understood, understand others, and adapt to new social situations at work.

It also captures overlooked traits such as interpersonal tension and collective patience, offering a unique and actionable profile for each team. TAWDI generates 36 distinct team profiles, providing clear insight into how people work together and where improvements can be made.
