Case Study: Oxford University's Learning Institute improves teamwork and leadership training with TMS Development International Ltd

Oxford University's Learning Institute - Customer Case Study

Oxford University’s Learning Institute supports staff and students with training in leadership, management, careers and personal development. It also faced a challenge helping newly elected student officers and final-year medical students work effectively in fast-paced, time-limited, high-stakes environments, where teamwork, differences in style, and limited time to learn could affect performance. The institute used TMS Development International Ltd’s Team Management Profile to address this need.

TMS Development International Ltd implemented the Team Management Profile to help participants identify their work preferences, understand team dynamics, and develop a shared language for discussing differences and gaps. At Oxford University, the profile became part of annual induction for student officers and was also used with medical students and other teams across the University. The result was stronger self-awareness, better team meetings and collaboration, and consistently positive feedback from students, with repeat annual requests showing the training’s value and relevance.
