G1: Groops Kick Off + Assessment

Group Connection Concept

Welcome to Groops!

Groops helps teams feel and function their best.

We bring together psychology, coaching, and data to strengthen connection, collaboration, and performance. Think of us as your team psychologist -  here to help your group understand itself better, work through dynamics, and grow together.

What to Expect:

  • Team + Individual Psychology-Based Assessment

  • Custom Coaching Program delivered through regular Groops (12/year)

  • Four 1:1 coaching sessions (30 min each)

  • Anonymous surveys + insight reports with guidance from a team psychology expert

Cohesion is a business asset – not just a feeling. 

Teams with strong social cohesion are more resilient, communicate more effectively, and perform better. Here are some characteristics of high and low cohesion / performing teams.

High Cohesion / High Performing

  • Psychological safety is high

  • Feedback is direct and well received

  • Conflict is addressed constructively

  • Clear roles, shared goals, and ownership

  • Trust is visible in day-to-day actions

  • People feel valued and connected

  • Energy is focused and collaborative

  • Team members lift each other up

Low Cohesion / Low Performing

  • People hold back or avoid speaking up

  • Feedback is rare or poorly delivered

  • Conflict is avoided or becomes toxic

  • Ambiguity, finger-pointing, or blame

  • Low trust, siloed behavior

  • People feel isolated or unseen

  • Meetings feel draining or performative

  • Team feels flat, resistant, or passive

Self Reflection

Take a moment to reflect on the following questions:

  • How cohesive is your team (0-10)? What makes you say that?

  • When is your team at its best? What does that feel like?

  • What do you want to get out of this program – personally and as a team?

Take Action

  1. Read over the list of high and low cohesion / performing teams and take note of which characteristics you notice in yourself and your team.

  2. What makes you think this? What have you observed?

  3. List 2 things you can try in the next two weeks that would contribute to a high cohesion / high performing team.

  4. Schedule a private 1-on-1 with your Groop Guide Elizabeth to go over the 2 things you would like to try before your next Groop.
