Overview of the Start-up Workshop
Key outputs
Watch the video to understand the “What” and “Why” of the Start-up Workshop for a 100-Day Challenge on which the 30-Day Project is based.
- 30-Day Goal, with some unique elements you will learn about.
- 30-Day Plan that involves some experimentation (not business as usual).
- Team Operating Agreement – that sets out the way the Team will manage itself in the next 30 days.
Start-up Workshop Agenda
What are 30-Day Projects all about
Shaping our 30-Day Goal
Developing our Team Agreement
Developing our 100-Day Plan
This week, we will focus on facilitation guidance for each of the four agenda items of the Start-up Workshop (shown above).
The concepts and tools of good facilitation are woven into the guidance notes that follow. Please have a slide pack printed when you go through the guidance notes of the four agenda items.
Remember, you are not alone on the journey. Join the office hour session to discuss any questions you have for the 30-Day Project gurus and from your peers (Team Coaches in other organisations).
How do I know that my Start-up Workshop was successful?
Naturally, it’ll be important that the team generates the three outputs of the workshop that are outlined above. Or at least that good progress has been made towards generating these outputs.
Beyond that, here are other, softer, signs of success that can be observed by the end of the workshop:
- Team members have begun to act like a high-performing team: They feel excited about the commitment they made (the 30-day goal they set), they are a little anxious about it, and they are eager to start implementing the plan they developed.
- Team members developed connections with each other, and they have begun to understand and appreciate the skills that each one brings to this team effort.
- Team members are looking forward to the next 30 days as a fun and enriching experience.
