How Does This Work?

Understanding the methodology behind the calculator

Team Net Value (TNV) is a composite score from 0-100 that measures how effectively your team converts its potential into actual value. It's calculated based on 18 research-validated dimensions of team performance including psychological safety, alignment, communication quality, and execution capability.

A TNV of 100 represents a perfectly optimized team where all potential is being realized. Most teams score between 50-75, indicating significant opportunity for improvement.

We use a straightforward calculation based on the economic principle that a team's potential output equals its investment (salaries paid):

Unrealized Value = Team Investment × (1 - TNV/100)

For example, a 10-person team with $80,000 average salary and 65% TNV:

  • Total Investment: $800,000/year
  • Unrealized Value: $800,000 × (1 - 0.65) = $280,000/year

This represents the annual value that could be captured by improving team effectiveness.

The unrealized value represents the gap between what your team could achieve at peak performance versus current output. This value is "left on the table" due to:

  • Misalignment and unclear priorities
  • Poor communication and information silos
  • Low psychological safety limiting innovation
  • Inefficient processes and coordination overhead
  • Unresolved conflicts and trust issues

By identifying and addressing these factors, teams typically see 10-25% improvement in effectiveness within 6 months of focused intervention.

Improving TNV requires a systematic approach. PEAKTEAMS provides:

  • Diagnostic Assessment: Identify exactly which dimensions need attention
  • Benchmarking: See how you compare to high-performing teams
  • Action Plans: AI-powered, specific recommendations for improvement
  • Progress Tracking: Measure improvement over time with repeat assessments

Most teams see measurable improvement within 3-6 months of implementing targeted changes.

Our methodology is grounded in 20+ years of organizational psychology research, including:

  • Google's Project Aristotle findings on team effectiveness
  • Amy Edmondson's research on psychological safety
  • The IMOI (Input-Mediator-Output-Input) framework for team processes
  • Meta-analyses on team cohesion and performance

Our 18 dimensions are derived from validated constructs that consistently predict team performance across industries and contexts. Learn more about our methodology →
