Web-enabled TAPTM Feedback Assessment Tool
Taking periodic assessments of the Team Alignment Partnering process and obtaining direct feedback from all the team members is critical to the overall success of the project.
Program Navigators Inc. has developed a web-based survey assessment tool to enable easy access for all team members to provide feedback. Once the feedback period is closed then all team members can view the feedback results. Team members are invited to login and to participate in a periodic project partnering feedback assessments.
Workshops
Program Navigators offer a variety of workshops delivered with our Direct Application Method of knowledge and skills transfer which focuses on working directly with project teams using their actual projects to apply one or a series of workshops. Real project work is completed and learning is enhanced because it is relevant to a project's current needs.
