Effective communication is crucial for teamwork. It means keeping everyone informed consistently and ensuring that no one is left out due to assumptions about shared knowledge.
I certainly will continue using the Customer Journey Mapping because this is so usefull to get most clear as possible the pain points, so to solve then and will really deliver value to the customer.
Earlier in my career I have worked as a designer and planned and ran live workshops with whiteboards and post it notes. :)
Now, as I have taken a slightly different role, I miss those workshops. As I work more with digital tools, I was happy to learn about the templates for customer journey mapping in Confluence. Will try that out in my projects.
I also need to look more into building new templates in Confluence to come up with new tools and techniques.
Implement a **Weekly Agile Stand-Up** and a **Bi-Weekly Retrospective** to enhance team collaboration and continuous improvement.
In the stand-up, each team member shares their recent accomplishments, upcoming tasks, and any blockers in a quick 15-minute meeting, using a digital board for visibility.
The retrospective, held every two weeks, allows the team to reflect on successes and challenges, using techniques like "Start, Stop, Continue" to generate actionable insights.
Documenting these discussions ensures accountability and fosters a culture of transparency, ultimately driving better project outcomes and team cohesion.
I plan to use the Team Goals, Signals, and Measures Strategic Guidance Play when working with my team on any project we work on. Setting up goals is a good way to have all team members on the same page on what are end goal is. With this method it gives the team a good session to brain storm and prioritize what needs to be done. Overall, this method can be a game changer for team composition!
I’m really drawn to the Goals, Signals, and Measures play. In our industry, aligning our creative vision with practical goals is crucial for successful project outcomes. I plan to run a workshop with my team where we can collectively define our project objectives and establish clear metrics to track our progress. By involving everyone in this process, we’ll not only create a shared understanding of our goals but also ensure that each team member knows how their contributions influence the overall project. This way, we can keep the motivation high and make our development process more cohesive. I’m excited to see how this structured approach can enhance our collaboration!
I can see myself using the Vision Creation play when beginning a project with my team. This play would be essential in laying the groundwork for what the team hopes to accomplish in our new project and would put us on a path for planning out and executing our future goals. I would run this play by following the guidelines within the play, and this would act as the jumping-off point for the teams new project. Running the play at the beginning of each new project would help the team to stay aligned with one another and keep us on-track throughout later stages of the project by ensuring everyone on the team understands the vision.
Thanks for the information. I am very much happy to try the Customer Journey Mapping. In this way we can simulate different customer persona to a more realistic approach.
I believe the Vision Creation Play will be extremely useful with my team. We are a development team, and having a solid understanding of what we are creating, who we are creating it for, and how we will best accomplish this will make the process flow smoothly.
I am a project manager in my fifties,and often the strategies of unexperieced project team members are not realistic, or business guided. It is not their fault, but how do you propose to mix their creativity with the crude reality?
One strategic guidance play I intend to run with my team is the "Goals, Signals, and Measures" play. It helps align everyone by clearly defining our objectives, identifying key signals of progress, and setting measurable outcomes. This ensures we stay focused on what matters, track our success effectively, and make informed decisions based on real data.
Since we were a small team and was configuring Jira from scratch so we can use in our Work Management and Service Management, i would be more than glad to use the DACI to focus on plan creation with each team
I will be implementing the Vision Creation play, as it is vital that everyone in the team is on the same page about WHY we are doing things in order to generate engagement and real value.
For my team, I can see the Vision Creation play having a very positive impact. Defining purpose and and ensuring the entire team is in agreement and understands the vision is a great foundation that I believe everyone should have.
In my current situation as a uni student and solo developer with a flexible team, I will use the Team Poster play from the Atlassian Team Playbook to help me create a shared direction for my projects, ensuring that everyone, whether they are core team members floating on and off the project, freelancers, or interested peers, understands the goals, values, and direction. With such a flexible team, I strive for alignment and clarity.
It's DAIC, It really clarify the role of all contributors of the team to the project and help the team to undertand their roles and authorities when it comes to processing the project
I plan to use the Vision Creation and Goals, Signals and Measures plays ASAP, I find them to be very useful methods for helping guide our internal visioning for the upcoming months. I hope to stick with them and get trackable outputs which can be converted into easy-to share documents on Confluence for better marketing of our team within our organization. Transparency helps gain understanding.
