In respect of your enquiry...the question you propose will not give you any
idea of what the different managers are using as the behaviour that
contributes to 'team cohesiveness'. (Do you mean team cohesion?)

In my view, you need to be specific about the behaviours that contribute to
team cohesion and then ask questions about those behaviours. In other words,
you need to have a theory about behaviours that lead to team cohesion.

Behind this however is something else...if you are asking about how the
different managers contribute or otherwise to team cohesion in triads you are
more likely to be disclosing relationships between managers that might be the
result of behaviours that are not related to Team Cohesion.

I have completed a similar project with a Management Top Team...in this case
I was not specifically involved with Team Cohesion, but with a range of
behaviours that were admired by managers in this team...

This gave us a lot to talk about in terms of whether colleagues exhibited
admired behaviours or not.. It was extremely useful in building team cohesion
as an outcome.
