Learn more about our handy checklist to ensure a smooth return to work after the holidays. With a few simple tricks, your team will hit the ground running in August!
The Checklist:
Most important:
Decide the date for the first Acceleration Meeting after the summer and book it in everyone's calendar
Make sure there is a sprint with Key Activities after the summer
If you have time now: it's a good idea to plan the whole autumn or at least Q3
If you don't have time now: book a work session in August to plan for autumn/Q3

Also good to do:
Review Most Important Goals, tags and weekly Key Activities in your team: for all three...
Are they still relevant?
Reconsider, adjust?
Talk to the team about the WHY for all three
For real: give weekly Key Activities some love… are they conducted with quality? Is there anything else worth focusing on during the fall? Involve the team, discuss together!
