Groupr
a team building software that uses personality type and skill set to build you
the best teams possible.
Project Brief
The goal of this project was to execute the full design of a useful screen based product from ideation to final prototype. .
Topic
I chose to create a product that would simplify the creation of teams, because I’ve watched professors group students at random for so many years, and I’ve always thought there must be a better way.
My goal was to provide people with a more enjoyable and efficient teamwork experience by inspiring empathy through a better understand of their team mates and themselves.

Design Challenge
How do I create a product that is engaging enough users will happily provide us the information we need, but also professional enough to be used by business’s and schools?
Phase 01
Brainstorming
Paint Points
Who will lead?
Often teams will end up with no one who wants to take charge, or
too many people who want control. Either way the outcome is bad,
the group could end up drifting aimlessly, or the power struggle will
eat up valuable time.
Lack of necessary skills
By teaming up people randomly, groups often end up with uneven distribution of skills, such as all the people proficient in coding could end up in one group, but all the illustrators will end up in another, and then neither team will product the best possible work.
conflict
Many groups end up fighting and arguing because their personalities and work styles don’t mesh well, if these conflicts go unresolved they can lead to more issues throughout the project.
Solution
Personality tests
Many people enjoy taking personalty tests so it’s an engaging way for us to gather information. We offer a few different tests, so the more tests they take the better we’ll understand them.
analysis
While personality tests aren’t always perfect, the results are still a
good framework to start with in terms fo self reflection and understanding your personal motivations and work style.
Additionally, key information can be shared with team mates to
help them empathize and resolve conflict
Efficient & Thoughtful
Most people don’t have the extra time to spend thoughtfully teaming up a large number of people. With Groupr its fast and simple, you can make final adjustments, and people will be feel respected because there was though put into a decision that will effect their life for a significant amount of time.
