Adaptation in team performance for sensemaking: Are we ready for the challenge?

This paper reports an on-going project to explore the challenge of measuring adaptive performance in teams for improved sensemaking. The paper describes an initial rapid review of literature which highlights: (i) the conceptual emphasis of the existing literature, (ii) nascent measures for examining individual adaptive skill and adaptivity in teams, and (iii) a lack of empirical evidence for the development or efficacy of training interventions to improve or develop adaptive team performance.
We build on previous understanding about adaptive performance. Nascent measures of individual and team adaptivity are identified and evaluated. Initial experiences of efforts to experimentally measure adaptive team performance for sensemaking will be presented if available.
