Spelinstructies

1. Bereid je voor 15 minuten

Create a shared space, whether online or in a physical space.

If you're running the Play via video conference you can create a table on a Confluence page or in a Google Doc.

Create the following columns:

  • Functie
  • Responsibilities (what others think)
  • Responsibilities (what I think)
  • Niet toegewezen

Whether you meet in person or remotely, send a message to the team explaining the Play to ensure that everyone understands what work you will be discussing.

TIP: GROTE GROEPEN

Have more than 4 people? Set aside 90 minutes for groups of 6-8.

For groups of 9 or more, break the Play into smaller 1-hour sessions.

TIP: TEAM MISSION

At the start of the Play, review the team's mission to set context for what the overall team is responsible for.

2. Identify roles 5 minuten

Define what roles there are in your team (e.g., team lead, developer, designer, accountant) and have everyone add theirs to the "Role" section of the table you prepared.

For any roles that have multiple people on the team in the same role, just add the role once. Some team members may play more than one role i.e. a software engineer who is also a project manager. In this case, add each role to the table.

3. Identify your teammates' responsibilities 15 minuten

For each of the other roles identified, write down your understanding of the role’s top responsibilities in the shared digital document or on sticky notes.

If you think of any responsibilities that don't fall clearly within a role, add them to the section for unassigned responsibilities.

TIP: CONCENTREER JE

Keep the session focused on roles, not people.

Door je te richten op de rol, kan het team hiaten ontdekken in vaardigheden die nodig zijn voor succes in die rol, ongeacht de al aanwezige teamleden.

4. Identify your responsibilities 5 minuten

Now ask each person to think of the top (usually 3-5) things they’re responsible for in their role.

Write each responsibility on a sticky note or digital note then rank them in order of importance.

5. Discuss role responsibilities 15 minuten

For each role, the person in the role describes their “What I think” notes. This can include describing how the tasks are prioritized in their role. Each person in the room then presents their ideas in the “What others think” column. The group can discuss differences in ideas and prioritization.

The role owner then reviews the differences and either accepts or declines additional responsibilities. If any responsibilities overlap, define a primary owner, as well as contributors or back-up owners.

Move responsibilities that are not accepted or do not have an owner to the unowned section at the bottom of the table.

TIP: APPROVAL

Depending on your organization, in order to act on the outcomes of the Play, the role owner might need to get their leadership’s approval to finalize their role outlined in this Play.

Table breakdown
EXAMPLE: UNCLAIMED RESPONSIBILITIES

This team identifies and discusses unclaimed responsibilities and uses a Google doc to capture their input.

6. Review unowned responsibilities 15 minuten

Review the unowned items as a group. See if they are an element of any of the existing roles. Discuss as a group why they might or might not fit in specific roles.

If they are not part of a role, this could mean that a new role is needed or that a role needs to be redefined. Make sure to identify an individual who is responsible for finding an owner of these tasks and a date to follow up.

TIP: HOT POTATO

Watch out for the responsibility that no role wants to accept. If you spot this, call this out so the group can discuss.

7. Summarize and identify next steps 5 minuten

As you wrap up, summarize the roles and responsibilities to confirm that the team agrees.

Identify individual people to own them and then document the specific roles, responsibilities, and deadlines everyone has agreed on.

TIP: AGREE TO DISAGREE

If the team can’t agree on some of the roles or responsibilities, note them as follow-up items to work through in smaller meetings later.


Opvolgen

Share out

Share the final document reflecting the outcome of the exercise with the team to see if there are gaps or opportunities.

Share roles and responsibilities document with key stakeholders and leaders. Make sure to tell the team you’ll be doing this.

TIP: REVIEW

Consider reviewing this Play with the team on a three or six month basis or when the team experiences change. It gets easier with practice.

Variaties

Multifunctionele teams

If you work on a cross-functional team, encourage each role to add some of their responsibilities before the meeting to set a baseline for the kinds of responsibilities they take on. Cross functional groups may have more unowned items so consider adding extra time to assign owners.

Multiple people with same role

If multiple people share the same role, you can encourage them to talk about their responsibilities before the session. They can then share their definition and validate their ideas during the session.

Back-ups

Some roles may have backups. For example, when the project manager is out the team lead runs weekly meetings. This can be added as a responsibility for the back up role.
