Team´s High Performance Tree

The High Performance Tree is a team exercise using the metaphor and image of a tree, to spark the conversation and create a vision to pursue high performance in your team.

Learning Objective

The High Performance Tree gives you as an Agile Coach or Scrum Master a powerful tool to teach your team the values (roots), the characteristics of high performance (leaves) and the outcome (fruits) that comes with it.

Purpose

With a set common goal to achieve, high-performing team members find themselves motivated, energized, and more creative. This exercise helps your team to define their high performance vision and it can be introduced to your team at any point of time;

  • When starting up as a new team to set expectations

  • When your team encounter a specific problem and needs new perspectives

Adaptions

You can use the suggested Scrum Values in the template or change the words so they are aligned with your company ́s values. As long as the values relates to Agile and are easy to understand, they will serve as a good foundation for the High Performance characteristics to thrive.
