Inner Team

The inner team is a personality model created by German psychologist Friedemann Schulz von Thun.

This is supposed to support the self-clarification process and by doing so set the foundation for a clear and authentic external communication.

In 1998, Thun published Miteinander reden 3, which expands his theory of communication to the notion of the inner team.

The inner team is a modification of the "parts party", a method from systemic family therapy, which was developed by Virginia Satir in the 1970s.

Additionally, his model draws upon the interacting parts of the personality within a human being that, amongst others, have been described by Margaret Paul and Erika J.

[5] Team members differ in various ways: they are loud or quiet, are slow or fast to join the conversation, are dominant with external contacts or only show inwards where they appear as thoughts, emotions, impulses, moods or bodily signals.

The team leader should pay great attention in order to be able to summarize the controversial questions and positions to it.
