A team’s ability to collaborate, communicate and make effective decisions is the pathway to success. The Deeper Signals Platform provides leaders and managers with Team Dynamics reports to help them become effective team coaches.

Here’s what you need to know about Team Dynamics reports:

Note: To be able to add new teams, you need to have the "Teams" feature enabled for your account.

If you want to add users to teams, you can do that by going to “Teams” tab—>”Enterprise Teams” and selecting “Upload teams”.

You can download the teams.csv example template to see how data in the CSV file should be organized or upload a CSV file if you already have it ready. After you upload the file, click “Save”.

Note: To make sure the CSV file is in the correct format, copy the values you want to upload to a Google Spreadsheet, save the spreadsheet as a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file, and upload that file to the platform.

If you’ve already got teams created and want to add a new team, select “Upload new team” - Download current team file. After downloading the file add a new team to it. Save the file in the CSV format and then upload it back to the platform by going to Upload new team - Upload a file - Save.

Below is an example of a CSV file and how the data should be organized within the spreadsheet.

The team manager should always be in the first row (in this example, Ted is the manager of team 1 and Ellena of team 2).

Note: A user can only be a manager of one team. They cannot be a manager of multiple teams. Similarly, a user can only be a direct report in one team. A user can be a manager of one team and a direct report in another.

If you need to add a new team member to one of your existing teams, select “Upload new team” - Download current team file. Add that user's email to the user column and their manager in the manager column. Save the file in the CSV format and then upload it back to the platform by going to Upload new team - Upload a file - Save.

If you want to remove someone from a team, first delete them from your CSV file.

Afterward, go to “Delete teams” to delete all your existing enterprise teams, and then upload this new CSV file without this user.

Note: You only need to delete all teams if you’re removing someone from a team; you don’t need to do it if you’re only adding a new user to a team.

To compare two teams, go to “Analytics” - ”Dashboard” - ”Compare”. Select the “Teams” option in both sets, search for teams you want to compare (search by typing in the team manager’s name), and then select “Compare”.

You can also compare an individual to a team or a tag to a team by selecting that option in another set.

Note: To compare teams, you need to have the “Compare” feature enabled for your account.

A user can belong to both a Project and a Team. However, there is a clear distinction between Teams and Projects. Projects are used to organize users into cohorts and Teams are used exclusively to generate a Team Dynamics report for a specific group of users.
