Rising Team helps leaders and their teams grow together by enabling managers to easily host meaningful team connection and development experiences focused on key leadership themes. These experiences are delivered via Rising Team kits, which include both science-based training for leaders and engaging, interactive experiences for teams.

There are two main types of kits — Connection Kits and Development Kits. Connection Kits are shorter sessions designed to promote deep team bonding. Sample Connection Kits include: Lifelines, Gratitude, and Keep/Let Go. Development Kits are longer in duration, and are focused on developing and practicing leadership skills within teams. Sample Development Kits include: Psychological Safety, Appreciation, and Resilience. 

The table below summarizes the key differences:

The number of people used for pricing is based on the number of individuals on teams that have access to the software.

In order to keep Connection Kit and Development Kit sessions to a reasonable length, we limit participation to 14 team members. Since the sessions involve active participation and sharing, keeping the size of the team to 14 or fewer ensures that everyone gets time to talk and you can have a meaningful session within a reasonable amount of time. Teams that are larger than 14 can be split into smaller groups.

Yes. In addition to Connection Kits and Development Kits, we also provide Jumbo Kits designed for large teams. These kits work well for in-person off-sites, all-hands meetings, and other large group settings. Jumbo Kits are available as part of an Enterprise plan.

In addition to Connection and Development Kits, we also provide Custom Kits, which allow companies to use the Rising Team platform to create engaging, interactive team workshops using their own leadership development content. Custom Kits and other product customization are only available as part of Develop and Enterprise plans.

Yes. Rising Team is accessed via a browser (on laptops or mobile devices), so there’s no need for managers or team members to install software. Simply register and invite users to participate.

Connection and Development Kits do not require any customization prior to use, so leaders and teams can get started immediately with proven, science-backed content.

Yes. We provide a wide range of training and onboarding support in order to make it as easy as possible for leaders and teams to get started and run successful sessions. These include: 

1. In-application support. First, training and onboarding support are embedded within the application. For example, training for leaders is accessible in the prep work that’s provided with each kit. Additionally, the software manages the outreach to team members, as well as follow up.
2. Leader training sessions. We also conduct leader training sessions for customers of Develop and Enterprise plans. These sessions provide an overview of the product, explain how to prepare for and conduct sessions, and review the simple steps needed to get started. o speed on the topic with just a half-hour or so of prep: read or listen to the research-based training articles, review a screencast of how the session will work, and try out the interactive exercise in advance.
3. Customized success plans. We work with our customers’ admins to create a customized team development plan, project timeline, success metrics, and more. Our goal is to take on the “heavy lifting” for our customers.

We believe that one of the best ways to understand the value of Rising Team is to participate in the experience yourself. While we do not generally make a free trial available, we regularly help leaders and teams experience the software through live demonstrations. Additionally, depending on the circumstances we can also arrange for other approaches to gain hands-on experience. We’d be happy to discuss with you — simply contact hello@risingteam.com.

We offer both monthly and annual billing options. Customers who choose annual billing receive an automatic 25% discount on their subscription.

Yes, you can cancel at any time by clicking Cancel subscription at the bottom of the billing section of your Admin tab. You’ll have access to Rising Team for the remainder of the billing period you paid for (month or year). At the end of the billing period you will lose access to both the application and your team’s data from previous sessions.

We continuously enhance our software and develop new features. This includes launching new kits every four to six weeks. Many of these new capabilities and offerings are included in existing plans, so you will get access to new content on a regular basis. Additionally, we periodically develop and introduce new capabilities that are not included in existing plans, but which are available for an incremental subscription fee.
