Methodology

Group and Individual Activity Record Instructions Group Activity Record (TEAM RECORD)

• Your GROUP/TEAM uses this to record the action items assigned to each group member.

• Ensure a due date is included which ideally should be collaboratively set so that all goals and delivery dates are clarified.

• Use this to ensure workloads are kept relatively even. • Use items to help define the initial agenda for any focus session (i.e.:

report on what’s done). • New items/work done by members can be raised but ensure this is not at

the expense of defined objectives unless absolutely warranted (ideally this should be approved by the group beforehand).

• Absentees from meetings must be noted, and it should be recorded if the person concerned has forwarded an apology with any work items required/due.

• Ensure failures to deliver on action items or violations of your group contract are noted here – See Tips for Handling Problems below on HOW TO APPLY STRIKES.

• Make sure that one person notes what each is doing on this sheet and HAND ALL THESE INTO YOUR WORKSHOP FACILITATOR in WORKSHOP 11.

Individual Activity Record

• Each individual records action items THEY are responsible for on this sheet and when it is due.

• Note when these items are completed on the sheet and ensure you have evidence of completion at team focus meetings (or forward them with an apology if you can’t attend).

• You may naturally discover things that you work on but were not part of your original allocation. Ensure these extra work items are noted here, and if incorporated in the team report they should be noted on the Group Activity Record (The TEAM record).

• Do not neglect allocated work tasks for self-appointed ones unless you have provided justification to your team.

• Copy additional sheets as required and feel free to do your own electronic version.

• Hand these completed sheets back in workshop 11.
