Innovative Team-Coaching-Diagnostic by Prof. David ClutterbuckWhat is PERILL?

He identified six key factors that influence team performance. PERILL provides a framework to understand and expose these factors within the complex and ever-changing environment.

How does PERILL work?
PERILL uses a structured online questionnaire that all team members fill out.
There are two versions of the questionnaire to meet different needs:
The answers are evaluated anonymously and provide a detailed picture of your team’s strengths and areas of development. The PERILL algorithms reveal connections between the different elements of the team system, enabling deeper insights into team dynamics.

Advantages of PERILL for your team

The 6 Pillars of PERILL
Purpose Motivation
Is there a clear reason for being and a clear direction that energies and captures the imagination of team members?
Do individual and collective identily coincide around a common purpose?
External facing systems and processes
How do the team interact with its various stakeholders?
How does it understand those stakeholders and they understand it and how does the team manage conflicting expectations, obtains resources etc?
Purpose Motivation
Do the team trust and respect each other?
Do they have genuine concern for each other’s welfare?
Does the relationship between team members enable truly close collaboration?
Purpose Motivation
How do the team work functionally together in balancing accountability and autonomy?
How agile is it, how does it communicate and how does the decision making process work?
Purpose Motivation
How do the team enhance its performance and enhance its skills and resources to tackle current and future tasks?
How does it manage capacity and enhance efficiency?
Leadership
How do the leadership qualities and behaviors have a moderating influence on team function and the other factors, and is that in a positive or negative way?
What makes PERILL different from other diagnostic tools?
In contrast to conventional methods, PERILL offers a comprehensive approach that takes into account the complexity of teams as adaptive systems. Instead of just identifying symptoms, PERILL uncovers the underlying causes of challenges by analysing the interactions between the various aspects of the team. This enables sustainable changes instead of short-term solutions.
