Conformism

A team subfactor with high Stability, and low Communication

Relates to teams that are both Stable and Applied

Conforming teams are characterised by the members' preference for a positive and friendly working environment, and their wish to avoid disagreement or confrontation. The amiability of the members, though, is not accompanied by the more socially expressive and confident factors found in Communicative teams.

For this reason, members of Conforming teams take care not to cause offence. Their rather passive attitude means that, while they will work steadily and reliably on a task once it has been assigned, they will rarely take pro-active action.
