Productivity
Suggestions to Start
1. A whiteboard coaching activity you can do with the whole team: Ask people what their ideal level of productivity looks like, and write their responses on the left side of the board. 2. Then ask what do we do as a team right now to support the left side of the board and where do we have opportunities and write down the responses on the right side of the board. Again, this visualization technique reveals what people need to change and improve without having to say it.
More Aggressive Suggestions
1. Try the note card activity. Give everybody large note cards and have them write down two things where the team is producing efficiently, and two things they feel the team could improve without mentioning names, instead rather mentioning areas of the productivity that have an opportunity to improve. 2. Once the note cards are collected, on the left side of the board write all the positive things and on the right side of the board write all the areas of opportunity to improve. 3. Ask each person to come up with two actions they are going to take to address the right side of the board where productivity is lacking and to share it at the next meeting.
