Introduction
This activity allows teams to categorize their sprint reflections into four playful columns: Gold Medals for major achievements, Silver Medals for great efforts that didn't quite succeed, Hurdles for challenges faced, and Team Spirit for moments of collaboration. It's a great way to foster team reflection and morale in a fun, sports-themed context.
🥇 Gold Medals
🥈 Silver Medals
Hurdles
Team Spirit
For the specific activity, the facilitator could use these points to describe the process:
- The 🥇 Gold Medals column is for actions and results that the team excelled at.
- The 🥈 Silver Medals column is for actions and results that the team almost delivered.
- The Hurdles column is for actions and behaviours that the team tried to overcome.
- The Team Spirit column is for actions and behaviours that the team are proud of.
