How does TeamsOnFire know what would be best for my company?
I manage several different groups of employees. Can I create a separate pool for each group?
I have certain employees that have to be together, separate, etc. Can I request that?
What exactly is the simulator simulating?
What is this baseline the simulator is comparing my recommendation to?
The simulator says my recommendation is 5% worse than the baseline. Is that possible?
Why did you change HarmonyAtWork's name to TeamsOnFire?
Feature-wise, what's changed?
Is there anything I should be aware of before upgrading?
Can I still receive a free upgrade from the last version of HarmonyAtWork?
Can I use my old HarmonyAtWork registration code with TeamsOnFire?
Can I use my old HarmonyAtWork files with TeamsOnFire?
How does TeamsOnFire know what would be best for my company?
It doesn't-at least not automatically.
But because every attribute TeamsOnFire analyzes to determine your recommendation is completely customized by you for your company and employees, its recommendation is tailored exactly to your company's and employees' needs.
I manage several different groups of employees. Can I create a separate pool for each group?
Absolutely. In fact, when each group does a different type of work, we strongly recommend it.
TeamsOnFire evaluates the broad benefit (or negative effect) of each attribute based on a pool's average response toward it. So when the employees in a pool do similar work (e.g., they're all airline pilots), the relative benefits of positive attributes (e.g., 737 flying experience) are emphasized.
This allows TeamsOFire to figure out the benefit of an employee having a certain attribute, when no other employees are involved in a job.
I have certain employees that have to be together, separate, etc. Can I request that?
In this version, you can manually place any employee in a single pool on any team.
This way, you can make sure whoever has to be together is, and whoever shouldn't be together isn't.
What exactly is the simulator simulating?
It's simulating your team in action. That is, actually doing work related to the attributes for the pool, with the employees working both individually and with each other. And being evaluated and scored on performance.
What is this baseline the simulator is comparing my recommendation to?
The baseline is a composite quality score based on analysis of hundreds of possible employee combinations. It represents a typical, intelligently designed team's performance.
The simulator says my recommendation is 5% worse than the baseline. Is that possible?
Technically, yes, but pretty unlikely. What's more probable is that your recommendation is slightly above average.
As the simulator is a picture of your team's performance over thousands of random interactions, your results can sometimes be skewed.
This happens most often when the employees in your pool are somewhat similar, and TeamsOnFire has fewer chances for optimization.
Why did you change HarmonyAtWork's name to TeamsOnFire?
We feel TeamsOnFire gives a more active, dynamic impression than HarmonyAtWork.
Feature-wise, what's changed?
First, we've enhanced the team building and employee selection algorithm, which now balances quality between teams.
Second, you can now manually place employees on specific teams. This is useful, for example, when you know two employees work particularly well together.
Third, TeamsOnFire has a built in simulator you can use to "pre-test" its recommendations-and your own team ideas.
Is there anything I should be aware of before upgrading?
TeamsOnFire doesn't contain HarmonyAtWork's import-from-Access feature. However, you can still use HarmonyAtWork for this, and then import the resulting pool file within TeamsOnFire.
Can I still receive a free upgrade from the last version of HarmonyAtWork?
Yes, absolutely.
Can I use my old HarmonyAtWork registration code with TeamsOnFire?
Yes. You may need to re-enter it.
If you don't have your registration code handy, just e-mail us, and we'll be happy to resend it.
Can I use my old HarmonyAtWork files with TeamsOnFire?
Yes. TeamsOnFire automatically converts HarmonyAtWork files to TeamsOnFire files when you open them. These are new files; your original files aren't modified in any way.
