Build the Ideal Teammate
RankingRemote or in person
Rank ten traits. Nobody agrees, which is the point.
Ten traits of a good colleague, ranked. Individually people are confident; as a team they discover their colleagues want something quite different from them than they assumed. Pairs beautifully with a session on feedback or on hiring.
Run this when…
The situations it was built for. If none of these is the room you have, it is probably the wrong activity.
- Before a session on feedback
- A hiring or interviewing workshop
- A newly formed team setting its norms
How it runs
Order a list alone, then as a team. The gap between the two is the debrief.
- 1You start a session and put the code on the big screen.
- 2Everyone joins on their phone — no app, no sign-up, just the code.
- 3You drive the pace from the host screen; the room answers as they go.
- 4Ending the session builds the report, with every answer in it.
Running it well
Only the host sees these. Participants never do.
- Ask what they put last, not first. Everyone's top three are the same; the bottom is where the disagreement lives.
- Run a feedback session straight after. People have just said out loud what they value, which is the hard part.
