Unlocking the Value of a System of Work

A Two-Part, Hands‑On Workshop Series for Teamwork Leaders

Today’s teams are coordinating projects, priorities, and stakeholders across email, chat, whiteboards, spreadsheets, and multiple tools. Work gets done - but it’s often hard to see who’s doing what, what’s blocked, and how it all ladders up to outcomes.

A System of Work helps you make sense of it all for your teams in Atlassian’s Teamwork Collection – so work flows smoothly, ownership is clear, and progress is easier to see, share, and improve.

This two-part workshop series is designed for work management and collaboration leaders. You’ll learn what a System of Work is, why it matters for cross‑team collaboration, and how to start applying it to your own programs, projects, and portfolios.


Part 1: The What and the Why (through a teamwork lens)

February 24 & 25, 2026
Format: Virtual, live workshop

In Part 1, we’ll introduce the core concepts behind a “System of Work” and ground them in the day‑to‑day reality of modern teams:

  • juggling competing priorities

  • coordinating work across business, product, and technology

  • keeping everyone aligned on goals, status, and outcomes

You’ll learn:

  • What a System of Work is and how it connects people, teams, tools, and workflows across your work management stack

  • Why it matters for execution, visibility, and collaboration across business and delivery teams

  • How it shows up today in the way your work requests, projects, and initiatives move across tools and handoffs

  • What “good” looks like when your System of Work is connected, intentional, and designed for teamwork

We’ll walk through a concrete example you can apply in your own organization (using familiar teamwork scenarios like intake, prioritization, and status), and give you space to reflect on how work currently flows in your environment.

You’ll leave Part 1 with:

  • A simple mental model for thinking about your System of Work as the “backbone” of teamwork

  • A shared language you can use with leaders, PMO, and delivery teams

  • Inspiration and ideas to bring back to your teams ahead of Part 2

Part 2: The How (designing your System of Work for Teamwork)

March 24 & 25, 2026
Format: Virtual, live workshop

In Part 2, we’ll move from concept to practice, focusing on how teams can intentionally design and evolve their System of Work.

Together, we will:

  • Map an example System of Work for a fictional company, with an emphasis on cross‑team collaboration and work management

  • Identify who to involve when you run a System of Work discovery in your own organization (from team leads to operations and PMO)

  • Spot key patterns and gaps in how work flows today (handoffs, bottlenecks, misalignments, duplicate tools)

  • Turn insights into action, outlining a clear improvement plan anchored in your real‑world teamwork context

You’ll leave Part 2 with:

  • A lightweight, reusable approach for running System of Work discovery sessions with your own teams

  • Practical templates and prompts you can adapt for work intake, planning, and status practices

  • A starter improvement plan framework to bring back to your stakeholders and communities of practice

🔜 Registration for Part 2 is coming shortly!
