Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for evaluating teamwork are provided. One of the methods includes: obtaining a plurality of electronic communications among a plurality of team members from one or more computing devices supporting the electronic communications; determining a score for each of the plurality of electronic communications; and aggregating a plurality of the scores to obtain an evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members.

Claims (61)

1 . A computer-implemented method for evaluating teamwork, comprising:

obtaining a plurality of electronic communications among a plurality of team members from one or more computing devices supporting the electronic communications;

determining a score for each of the plurality of electronic communications; and

aggregating a plurality of the scores to obtain an evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein:

obtaining the plurality of electronic communications comprises: receiving the plurality of electronic communications respectively from a plurality of filters installed on electronic communication servers; and

the plurality of filters are configured to identify and filter out the plurality of electronic communications for the evaluation.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein:

the electronic communication servers comprise an email server and an instant messenger server.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the score for each of the plurality of electronic communications comprises:

determining the score for each of the plurality of electronic communications based on an electronic communication type, an electronic communication frequency, a time pattern of the electronic communication, a word scan for performance data, a word scan for appreciation, and a team project activity.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein aggregating the plurality of the scores to obtain the evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members comprises:

summing the plurality of the scores over a measurement period to obtain the evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the evaluation of teamwork comprises an evaluation of collaboration;

the plurality of electronic communications comprise electronic communications for collaboration purposes; and

the plurality of electronic communications comprise at least one of the following subjects: team member schedule sharing, project meeting, and Q&A (questions and answers).

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the evaluation of teamwork comprises an evaluation of leadership;

the plurality of electronic communications comprise electronic communications initiated by a manager for management purposes; and

the plurality of electronic communications comprise at least one of the following subjects: individual meeting, team meeting, project meeting, promotion announcement, and team building activity.

8 . A system for evaluating teamwork, comprising one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable memories coupled to the one or more processors and configured with instructions executable by the one or more processors to cause the system to perform operations comprising:

obtaining a plurality of electronic communications among a plurality of team members from one or more computing devices supporting the electronic communications;

determining a score for each of the plurality of electronic communications; and

aggregating a plurality of the scores to obtain an evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members.

9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein:

obtaining the plurality of electronic communications comprises: receiving the plurality of electronic communications respectively from a plurality of filters installed on electronic communication servers; and

the plurality of filters are configured to identify and filter out the plurality of electronic communications for the evaluation.

10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein:

the electronic communication servers comprise an email server and an instant messenger server.

11 . The system of claim 8 , wherein determining the score for each of the plurality of electronic communications comprises:

determining the score for each of the plurality of electronic communications based on an electronic communication type, an electronic communication frequency, a time pattern of the electronic communication, a word scan for performance data, a word scan for appreciation, and a team project activity.

12 . The system of claim 8 , wherein aggregating the plurality of the scores to obtain the evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members comprises:

summing the plurality of the scores over a measurement period to obtain the evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members.

13 . The system of claim 8 , wherein:

the evaluation of teamwork comprises an evaluation of collaboration;

the plurality of electronic communications comprise electronic communications for collaboration purposes; and

the plurality of electronic communications comprise at least one of the following subjects: team member schedule sharing, project meeting, and Q&A (questions and answers).

14 . The system of claim 8 , wherein:

the evaluation of teamwork comprises an evaluation of leadership;

the plurality of electronic communications comprise electronic communications initiated by a manager for management purposes; and

the plurality of electronic communications comprise at least one of the following subjects: individual meeting, team meeting, project meeting, promotion announcement, and team building activity.

15 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for evaluating teamwork, configured with instructions executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

obtaining a plurality of electronic communications among a plurality of team members from one or more computing devices supporting the electronic communications;

determining a score for each of the plurality of electronic communications; and

aggregating a plurality of the scores to obtain an evaluation of teamwork among the plurality of team members.

16 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein:

obtaining the plurality of electronic communications comprises: receiving the plurality of electronic communications respectively from a plurality of filters installed on electronic communication servers; and

the plurality of filters are configured to identify and filter out the plurality of electronic communications for the evaluation.

17 . The storage medium of claim 16 , wherein:

the electronic communication servers comprise an email server and an instant messenger server.

18 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein determining the score for each of the plurality of electronic communications comprises:

determining the score for each of the plurality of electronic communications based on an electronic communication type, an electronic communication frequency, a time pattern of the electronic communication, a word scan for performance data, a word scan for appreciation, and a team project activity.

19 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein:

the evaluation of teamwork comprises an evaluation of collaboration;

the plurality of electronic communications comprise electronic communications for collaboration purposes; and

the plurality of electronic communications comprise at least one of the following subjects: team member schedule sharing, project meeting, and Q&A (questions and answers).

20 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein:

the evaluation of teamwork comprises an evaluation of leadership;

the plurality of electronic communications comprise electronic communications initiated by a manager for management purposes; and

the plurality of electronic communications comprise at least one of the following subjects: individual meeting, team meeting, project meeting, promotion announcement, and team building activity.
