There are 16 different team types -- two "opposites" across four dimensions of team behaviors (2^4 combinations): how teams communicate information, how teams process information, how teams decide on what to do, and how teams work towards that goal. We should probably list them out somewhere on the website (good idea), but in the meantime you can get a sense for them here: https://www.teamdynamics.io/#dynamics
TeamDynamics is designed to be applicable for any team of "knowledge" workers, and organized around the group of people that do real work together. I.e., It's more applicable for the cross-functional growth team of 6-8 people (across product, design, engineering, etc.) than for, say, an entire 8-person product org (who don't really work together that much). TeamDynamics was built by people who build software products for their day jobs, so maybe inherently it's a bit biased in that direction?
Sweet spot on team size is up to 9 people; past that, probably worth breaking the group up into sub-teams to make sure the results actually reflect groups who work together every day.
The team personality result is an aggregate of the responses of all the individuals who take the test. However, we also ask each individual about their own personal preferences, so each person can see how their individual behavioral norms relate to their team's overall dynamics. In other words, you get both 1 result for the team's personality, and many individual results about how each team member relates to that personality.
