How to start up a distributed team online with gamification – Mini XP Days 2022
May 17, 2022
€175
I’m doing a mini-workshop about starting up distributed teams online using gamification for the Mini-XP days on May 17, 2022.
How to start up a distributed team online with gamification
Remote first is becoming the norm, and this is also true for new teams. Where you would previously organize one or more onsite kick-off sessions to start a new team, a new distributed team would have to be working online together from day 1.
Techniques used for team chartering might still be useful, but they would need a different approach for online working. Gamification, incentifying people’s engagement by using game-style principles and practices, can help you to build strong teams.
In this session, we’ll look at several tools and playing formats that can be used to start up distributed teams and foster further development.
We’ll do the exercises in teams, and as we will be experimenting with both in-person and online exercises it’s good to bring your laptop or tablet too.
Mini XP Days
Instead of scaling up further, XP Days decided to “scale-out”: they rerun some of the favourite sessions of the previous year’s XP Days at the “Mini XP Day”, a one day conference with three tracks. Mini XP Day is ideal if you’ve missed XP Days or if you want to get a “taste” of what XP Days is.
Mini XP Days 2022 will be held on May 17 at the Van der Valk Hotel Beveren.
