Better Teams.
Better Care.
Better Outcomes.
See how a large academic health system transformed staff collaboration, patient experience, and clinical quality — across 75+ clinics, in just two sessions per team.
Sound Familiar?
Fragmented communication. Misaligned work styles. Physician engagement scores that lag behind national benchmarks. These are challenges facing health systems everywhere — and they directly impact the care patients receive.
A large academic health system set out to change that. By deploying Simpli5, powered by 5 Dynamics, across their physician network, they gave clinical teams a shared language to understand how each person naturally works — and what that means for the team as a whole.
Simple to Deploy. Measurable Results.
Each clinic participates in just two sessions:
Team members learn about their own energy profiles across five dynamics — discovering where they naturally thrive and where they have to work harder.
The group learns how their profiles interact collectively — turning potential friction points into genuine, lasting collaboration.
The 5 Dynamics framework maps every project through five essential phases:
Each person has natural energy for some of these phases — and less for others. That's not a flaw; that's information. When teams understand this, misunderstandings decrease and collaboration increases — without lengthy conflict resolution or organizational restructuring.
The Results Speak for Themselves
Following training, staff reported meaningful improvements across every dimension measured:
| Survey Item | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Our team works together to accomplish day-to-day tasks | 84.10% | 92.85% |
| Different members work well together, even with different work styles | 78.45% | 84.83% |
| I feel aware of what is going on in my clinic most of the time | 67.49% | 80.36% |
| I feel my opinions are respected in my clinic | 75.62% | 83.04% |
Compared to a control group of practices that did not receive training, clinics with Simpli5 improved across all three key patient experience metrics:
- Overall assessment of the practice
- Patients reporting staff worked well together
- Likelihood of recommending the practice
Practices with Simpli5 training significantly outperformed those without across six quality measures (p<0.001):
| Quality Measure | Without Simpli5 | With Simpli5 |
|---|---|---|
| Cervical Cancer Screening | +0.63% | +1.78% |
| Colorectal Cancer Screening | +0.81% | +1.07% |
| Pneumonia Vaccination (Older Adults) | +0.50% | +1.82% |
| Diabetes Eye Exam | +5.41% | +6.57% |
| Diabetes A1c Poor Control >9% | +0.15% | −0.38%* |
| Depression Remission | +2.19% | +3.49% |
| *Lower is better for A1c poor control | ||
Two years in, physician engagement had undergone a dramatic shift — rising from the 34th to the 79th percentile nationally:
Real Moments. Real Change.
These weren't abstract insights. They changed how people showed up for each other every day.
"Shame on me."
Once a clinical staff member simply said "I need help," her Execute-energy coordinator was immediately up and assisting — every time.
A provider discovered his Reserved Excite energy was being fully depleted with patients — leaving him visibly exhausted when interacting with staff afterward.

In a field where the margin between good and great care often comes down to communication and trust, investing in how teams work together may be the smartest clinical decision a health system can make.
