In this exercise, the team has to answer different questions regarding their individual proactive work behaviour. It can be used with a variety of questions, not just the ones provided here. The exercise can help create an understanding of the definition of proactive behaviour and personal initiative while giving food for thought for reflecting on their past behavior. You can also use this exercise to get insights on how the last sprint went.
Attention: Be aware that if there is an intermediate level on the scale, there may be ambiguous results.
Remote? You have the possibility to run the workshop remotely by having an online whiteboard at your disposal on which a timeline can be displayed.Overview: Everyone answers various questions regarding their proactive work behavior.

I propose ideas to improve work processes.
Even if there is a general problem (eg. sales dropping), I try to find the reason for it.

If I believe in something, I will make it happen, no matter the odds.

Example
“Even though every team member has a different understanding of the extent to which personal commitment can be helpful, it is good and useful to consider what the team members would like and expect. All team members are sensitized to the topic.”Didn’t go as expected? Check out the following tips.
The team is divided on the extent to which individual initiative can be useful and helpful
Make clear it is okay to have different opinions. It is important that everyone is open minded about other people’s views and willing to compromise.People are unconftable to position themselves because they don’t want to say they’re better/ worse in something than the others
Make it clear, that this is not a competition and nobody will be judged, everybody should just focus on themselves.Echomat.org | Fun. Effective. Team Workshops.
