Now get back to work! ;-)
“Plays” are techniques Atlassian teams have
successfully used to improve the way they
work together.
Remember: plays aren’t supposed to be
extra work – just different ways of
approaching the work you already do.
25. Let’s roll!
Run a Health Monitor
Your first session will take about an hour. Think
of it as an investment – not a tax.
Work better together
Use plays from the Atlassian Team Playbook,
and any other techniques that suit!
Rally your team
Include individual contributors and your
manager, but not outside stakeholders.
