A team subfactor with high Productivity, and low Stability

Relates to teams that are both Productive and Flexible

As with all Productive teams, members of Active groups are focused on the effectiveness of the team and the quality of its output. In this case, however, they also possess an urgent, active style that is lacking from many similar groups.

If properly channelled, the Active team can be one of the most efficient styles, especially if the Active element is combined with high level of Direction. It should be noted, though, that the type of member typified by the Active subfactor has a low concentration threshold and is easily distracted - elements that are often associated with a creative approach to problem-solving, but which might impact on the overall effectiveness of the team if not properly controlled.
