Retrospectives of Teams with Work Expo

What is Work Expo?
Expositions and museums are popular because they tell stories with pictures or objects. They inspire people by showing both the beautiful and the terrible things that have shaped humanity into what it is now. Management 3.0 Workout - Chapter Work Expo.
Work Expo is the metaphor of making and showing exhibitions in a fun collaborative way to create visual messages of the values of the team, the reason for being as a team and anchoring it in the minds and spirit of our collaborators.

As expositions and museums they tell stories with pictures or objects. They inspire people by showing both the beautiful and the terrible things that have shaped humanity into what it is now. Some things we hope to create more of in the future, while other things we hope to never witness again.
Dowden, A Picture is Worth 1000 Words 
Preparation:
  • In slides or cards show key questions, for example:
  • What is the purpose of the project, phase or sprint, etc, for the team?
  • What are your favourite stories about the project, phase or sprint (good and bad ones), (What did we do well?, What did we do wrong?
  • Coffe breaks (optional).
How did I experiment?

  • In groups 3 people: Collect all the favourite stories that you like to tell about the project or sprint (the good ones and the bad ones) and note the keywords down (10 minutes). 
    • Decide which of the stories are the best examples of what you want or don’t want to happen in the future (8 minutes).
    • Draw their stories to and build up the exposition (20 minutes).  
    • Every group presents their exposition – one after the other. The other people listen and ask questions. (15 minutes)
      The Team presents its Work Expo
      All together: Evaluate the things shown and discuss your common purpose (15 minutes).

What is Happiness Door?

A fantastic practice thanks to the result of the mojito applied by Jurgen Appello of the feedback Wall and Happiness Index. What is Happiness Door? The Happiness Door really is often just Post-Its with feedback written on them, and, like the Happiness Index, it assumes that people can act as the best gauge of their own happiness level the Happiness Door really is often just Post-Its with feedback written on them, and, like the Happiness Index, it assumes that people can act as the best gauge of their own happiness level.

Using Kudos to give Continuous reward to your Employees!

What is Kudos?  Since the appearance of the M3.0, the reward is a continuous act; it rewards behavior, not results, the Kudos technique is associated with the fourth aspect of Martie which is a tool used to support the intrinsic motivation of people at work. The Kudo is = symbol of gratitude. What is it useful for? I was attracted to use this technique when I was assigned as an agile consultant in 2015 in organizations that had decided to experience the Scrum framework as a way of working. The attraction of this technique is due to various aspects such as: It is practical, fun and easy to do, reward and motivate in public. It reads as a team, everyone participates, it promotes transparency in understanding what is being rewarded and why, nothing to do with a private session with the boss. It is economical, very low cost and sustainable through time. The moments in which you can use this technique will depend on the context, to name a few. At the end of an in

How do you achieve the empathy in your collaborators? Personal Maps can help you.

In 2014 I had the opportunity to work in a company that from the point of view of M.30 is a company that is managed under the management style M2.0 although there were more moments of management 1.0. The boss’s contact with his employees is very low or zero, the fact of observing the classical boss’s office with large, elegant spaces, well furnished, executive refrigerator, private bathroom and his door remaining shut rather than opening, leaves much to be said, generating a deep feeling of abandonment and insignificance towards his staff. The simplicity with which I was presented to this new team of professionals: This is Rodolfo Suárez who will be the new member of the department..., he has experience in..., very basic or very traditional in my opinion. I wondered if a better or different way didn’t exist to integrate new members of the team to other employees and managers. This unease led me to investigate and discover for the first time the existence of the M3.0 movement in
