Team time management

Team time management
Dear sir/madam,

Thank you for participating in my research about project team effectiveness and team time management by filling in this survey. It will take approximatelly 20 minutes of your time.

The questions are subdivided in the following subjects:
1. Open questions regarding personal and team information.
2. Likert scale questions regarding the way you allocate your time at work.
3. Likert scale questions regarding team processes.
4. Likert scale questions about the utilization of time management on team level.

The personal and team questions are posed with the aim to identify the team structure, so who is part of which team and by whom is it managed. This is important for the research, because diversity measurements within the team will be conducted on certain variables. Within this survey, we refer to teams on the lowest level. Often, this team is guided by the same manager or consultant. With these team members you collaborate on a daily to weekly basis. In this survey we perceive the leading manager/consultant as part of the team. If you are the manager of a team, please refer to your team as the team you are managing.


Notice that the information obtained from the surveys will be treated as confidential and shall not be used or released for other purposes.

Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Continue button below.
