Christine P. Dela Rosa Atlassian Team

It may not be necessary for a whole company to adopt the Atlassian Team Playbook philosophy, at least not from the get go. If you introduce health monitors alone to your team for example, that might be game-changing for your team. Perhaps that practice spreads to others and the rest of the organization might follow. Or…

Depends on how much time it takes to make some progress and reassess. For some projects/teams like some I belong to, that's a monthly basis. For others, that's once/quarter. Or, maybe it's very frequent like once every other day during a particularly busy period and then only at the start and midpoint of every project…

It's up to you. The important part is that your team agrees on the color of an attribute. I've seen sessions where one person responds with a red perspective, a couple are green, and everyone else is yellow. The person that believes the attribute should be red might make enough of a case for everyone to reconsider their…

Hi Lars - thanks for your question. I noticed it in your feedback note but will respond to that via this forum. Like you said, the project poster works for big projects while single features feel like pieces of a larger project. If you've already run the Journey Mapping play or understand the user journey, you should be…

Totally up to you. I think "difficult" refers to the amount of prep and engagement required of participants.Some plays require more prep and interaction than others. If you read through the full instructions and the team does the prep work, all teams should be able to run all plays without having experience in any of them.…

This is just a guide. If you want to write up what everyone does, that can be an interesting exercise to read what everyone thinks each other is responsible for. If you want to just do that for one person, that works, too. It may also makes sense if no one fills out sheets and team members say what they would have written…

Put an hour on your team's calendar and drop the project team health monitor link (or whichever health monitor you're looking at) in the meeting details. So long as everyone shows up ready to share honestly and discuss with the intention of getting to a better place, there doesn't need to be a ton of prep. The sessions…

The team lead could be a good facilitator and someone that can help hold the team accountable. If you're nervous about participating in the health monitor session and taking notes, try asking someone outside your team who can act as a neutral facilitator to send the meeting invite and direct everyone during the session.…

If the Playbook seems overwhelming at first, that could speak to its resonance and be a good sign that the Playbook will be helpful. You don't need to try every part of the Playbook at once. If no specific section jumps out, I recommend starting with the health monitor. Once you can ground your team on where its healthy…
