Team effectiveness training across Estonia

The meeting ends, everyone nods, and a week later it turns out each person understood the decision differently. It is not a lack of goodwill. People see the same situation differently, and so they talk past each other.

Team training makes those differences visible. When a team shares a language for why one person wants a quick decision, another wants more data and a third wants to hear everyone, collaboration becomes easier and less personal.

When team training helps

Good people talk past each other and small misunderstandings pile up.
People stay silent in meetings, and later it turns out not everyone agreed.
A new or changed team needs common ground.
Departments work side by side, but not together.

How we work

A short conversation. We map the team’s situation, goals and participants, and recommend a programme and length.
A personal profile. Before the training, each participant completes a 15–20-minute online questionnaire and receives a personal Insights Discovery® profile.
The workshop. In the first half we get to know ourselves. We explore the four colour energy model and our own behavioural patterns: how we usually communicate, decide and react, especially under pressure. We then practise recognising these patterns in other people and consciously adapting our own communication. In the second half we open the personal profiles and work through real situations: where collaboration flows, where it creates friction, and why. The team ends by agreeing what it will do differently.
Next step. Once the shared language is in place, Insights Discovering Team Effectiveness deepens collaboration. The Team Wheel shows how the team’s different styles interact.

Programmes for teams

Insights Discovery: An Introduction is the foundation. It gives the team a shared language for people’s differences.
Insights Discovering Team Effectiveness is the next step. It maps the team’s strengths, roles and tension points and helps build trust and shared working agreements.
Insights Discovering Sales Effectiveness suits sales teams that want to understand their clients better.

Participants keep their personal profile. In the next programme only the new profile chapters are added, so each step costs less than the one before.

For team events and large groups

Not every team needs a full training day straight away. For summer and winter team days, annual meetings and sales team gatherings we design playful custom sessions based on the Insights Discovery colour energies. People discover together why they see the same things differently, and they gain a first shared language that makes later work easier.

The format also works for large groups of more than 50 people and does not require personal profiles. We agree the content, length and price based on the goal of your event.

Programme price

Example: Insights Discovery: An Introduction for a team of 10 costs from EUR 2,200 + VAT. This includes a one-day workshop (6–7 hours) and, for each participant, the online questionnaire and a personal profile. The final price depends on the number of participants, the programme and its length. We agree it together after a short conversation about your team’s situation. Travel outside Harju County is charged at EUR 0.50 per km.

Where the training takes place

We train teams across Estonia at your premises or a venue of your choice, whether in Tallinn, Tartu, Pärnu or elsewhere, and virtually via MS Teams. Training is delivered in English or Estonian, so it works well for international teams. The ideal group size is 8–16 people.

Who leads the training

The trainer is Ertti Hermanson, the only licensed Insights Discovery practitioner in Estonia, with more than 30 years of leadership experience at Alexela, Servaali, Kaupmees & Ko and Momentin. Kvadrant Koolitus is the official Insights Discovery partner in Estonia.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between team training and a team event?

Team training is in-depth work with one team, and everyone receives a personal profile. We work on real situations and agree concrete changes. A team event session is more playful, runs without profiles and also suits a large group. It creates a shared experience and a first shared language that a training programme can deepen later.

What group size works best?

Best with 8–16 people. Larger groups are possible; we then adapt the working formats. For events with more than 50 people we design a playful custom session.

Can the training be delivered virtually?

Yes. The training also works on MS Teams when the team works in different locations.

Where do we start if there is already tension in the team?

With a conversation. If tensions run high, we first discuss whether training is the right first step and how to run it so that people feel safe.
