Innovate with C.A.R.E. Profile®
Helping People Work More Effectively in Teams
Successful team members don't do the same thing at the same time.
They do the right thing at the right time.
And while team members work together toward a common goal,
individuals still must play their separate parts in the process.
As organizations rely more and more on teams to innovate,
problem-solve, produce, and compete at the speed of change,
understanding and capitalizing on individual approaches to group
process is the bottom line on creating high performance teams.
Discover the Right Roles for the Right People
The Innovate with C.A.R.E. Profile® is a unique, self-directing
learning instrument that helps individuals work from their strengths
by identifying their most natural team role.
This awareness also helps team members value the contribution of others.

"Z Process" Keeps Teams Moving in the Right Direction
The Innovate with C.A.R.E. Profile® uses the "Z Process"
to map the flow of assigning roles, completing tasks, and handing
off tasks to other team members.
In this relay process, tasks are passed from Creators to Advancers,
from Advancers to Refiners, and from Refiners to Executors.
Facilitators make sure the handoffs are made at the right time.
