AI trained with Rising Team data offers teams actionable, science-backed leadership advice personalized based on insights about each team member.
Absolutely. In all types of work settings, over 90% of those who participate in a single Rising Team session report feeling a stronger connection with their colleagues. The majority of our customers see a significant boost in engagement scores compared to their metrics before rolling-out Rising Team and against control groups that do not participate in Rising Team sessions.
Teams dedicate just 3 to 4 hours quarterly doing Rising Team sessions, a modest investment under 1% of their time, resulting in significant boosts in connection and engagement.
We typically recommend the following cadence for each 90-day quarter:
No, Rising Team works great for in-person and hybrid teams, too.
There is no minimum. Even 2 people can do sessions together. Our current maximum recommended team size is 14. We also offer kits for large team meetings up to 1,000.
Not at all! Our sessions have a 9 out of 10 “likely to recommend” score across all kinds of teams. Read more about what participants say about our sessions. Managers and teams appreciate the fact that our sessions use scientifically-proven leadership frameworks and tools from experts such as Amy Edmondson, Timothy R. Clark, Adam Grant, and many others.
Our sessions are designed to get participants talking, so this won’t be a problem! Sessions start with light warm-ups to help participants get comfortable. Then they move on to more in-depth activities and team discussions that follow. During group share-outs, the tool automatically prompts participants so that everyone gets a turn without having to raise their hand.
Rising Team is beneficial for leaders and teams at every level, from the C–Suite to first-time managers. While many customers often first try Rising Team with senior executives, it’s designed to help leaders gain a deeper understanding of their teams, which is essential at all levels of an organization. Regardless of level, teams value the insights the gather and team bonding that occurs.
Our training is designed to be efficient. Upon program kick-off, we conduct a 60-minute live training session to familiarize team leaders with how to use the platform. Then, for Development Kits, leaders allocate approximately 20 minutes before the session to familiarize themselves with the subject matter and session facilitation.
Our sessions address all the drivers of high performing teams and the key factors measured in employee engagement surveys, like Psychological Safety, Resilience, Career Growth, Conscious Listening, Clear Expectations, Appreciation, Motivators, Gratitude, Feedback, and dozens more. View the full list of kits here.
Rather than rely on a single model or framework, we build our sessions around the most common drivers of high-performing teams as measured by organizations like Gallup, McKinsey, and Harvard Business Review. We incorporate the latest research from leadership experts including Amy Edmondson, Timothy R. Clark, Adam Grant, and many others, as well as learning from 25+ years of leadership experience of our founder, Jennifer Dulski, who teaches leadership at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
