Better Agile…

Description

This brainstorming activity helps participants refine their approach to become better agile team members. They think of 3 main perspectives: collaborating with others, achieving better results and developing skills that improve their general performance. There are no good or bad ideas, only options that each should test and validate for themselves.

Flow

Introduction

• Introduce the activity to the participants.
• Slit them into teams.
• Each team will name a team coordinator to facilitate the discussion in the breakout room. In the end, they will present the outcome to the other teams. The team coordinators can rely on the ideas written within the predefined template.
• Provide the activity link to each team.

Work

• Participants brainstorm about how they can become more agile in their role. They name specific behaviours and actions thinking about three main perspectives. It’s about collaborating with others, achieving results, and developing skills.
• They write down on virtual sticky notes their ideas.
• Recommend them to write one idea/sticky note.
• Then they can cluster the ideas even further since they can freely move the sticky notes on the board.
• Their findings suit any given role within a team.

Debrief (suggested)

• The team coordinator from each team will present the outcome to the other teams.
• The facilitator may ask the following questions:
  • What did you discover during this activity?
  • Which one of these approaches do you consider to be the easiest one to put into practice?
  • Do you need certain resources to implement these ideas? Can you name a few?
