Team Health Pulse-Check 

Is Your Team Human-Led or Running on Autopilot? 

Create the Space to Lead Smarter — Not Just Faster. 

When change hits (new tech, new priorities, new goals), teams can start rushing through the work and lose sight of what makes them great — their humanity. 

This quick Team Health Pulse-Check helps you reflect on: 

  • Your team’s emotional energy 

  • Your feedback and learning culture 

  • How well you’re using AI and tech tools 

  • Whether your team is aligned to your bigger vision

Team Health Pulse-Check

How to Take the Pulse-Check: 

  • Read each statement below. 

  • Circle or note the letter (a - e) that feels most true for your team right now. 

  • Be honest — there are no right or wrong answers. 

At the end, you’ll find coaching prompts based on your results to help you take the next step. 

1. How often does your team check in on how they’re feeling, not just what they’re doing? 

a. "Feelings? We don’t have time for that." 

b. "We sometimes ask, but usually rush through it." 

c. "We check in when things feel tense." 

d. "We regularly check in and adjust when needed." 

e. "We start every week by creating space for emotional check-ins — it’s part of how we work." 

 

2. How safe does your team feel to give and receive honest feedback? 

a. "Feedback? That’s for annual reviews, right?" 

b. "We try, but it’s awkward or avoided." 

c. "We share feedback when something big happens." 

d. "We give and receive feedback most weeks." 

e. "Feedback is part of our rhythm — fast, clear, and supportive." 

 

3. How often does your team challenge old ways of working? 

a. "We do what we’ve always done." 

b. "We occasionally suggest new ideas." 

c. "We talk about change, but rarely follow through." 

d. "We regularly invite fresh perspectives." 

e. "We make rethinking how we work part of our team culture." 

 

4. How does your team currently use AI or automation tools? 

a. "We don’t… and we’re not sure we want to." 

b. "We’ve tried it, but it feels clunky or forced." 

c. "A few people use it here and there." 

d. "We use AI to speed up drafts, ideas, or research." 

e. "We use AI to amplify human thinking and free up time for higher-value work." 

 

5. How clear is your team on your big-picture goals? 

a. "Wait… do we have big-picture goals?" 

b. "We set them once… and haven’t revisited them." 

c. "We mention them occasionally." 

d. "We revisit them monthly or quarterly." 

e. "Our vision guides our work every week — it’s our true north."
