Big thanks to my colleagues at Netlight – Cecilia Thorsén, Mario Wandpflug, Victor Birath and Sarah Rygart who came up with the initiative and created the canvas.
What Is It?
The tool is used to align a team on remote processes, culture, task management and other agreement the team would like to have. The result is a motivated and aligned team with a heightened potential for awesome deliveries!
How Can I Use It?
A workshop with this canvas can, for example, be conducted as follow:
- Introduction: Explain the setting and purpose
- Brain Dump: Take one area at a time and let your team generate ideas (one per post-it)
- Discussion: Group and discuss the ideas
- Agreement: The final goal is to agree on a common picture
Side note: For the “team members area”, let each team member generate one post-it with all the information on it. This helps to reduce the number of post-its used.
