SOLUTION:

Resource Help Agenda Item

PURPOSE: Build an agenda item into your team meetings to give team members the opportunity to share what resources they need.

Time: 20 Minutes 

STEP 1: Build 10 minutes into your regularly scheduled team meetings or team calls for the “Resource Help” agenda item.

STEP 2: During the “Resource Help” agenda item, team members do the following:

  1. Identify a resource they need in order to deliver their individual goals or work priorities
  2. Describe why the resource is critical
  3. List the actions they’ve already taken to obtain the resource
  4. Outline the obstacles impacting their ability to acquire the resource

STEP 3: The team brainstorms ideas to help the team member obtain the needed resource.  The team should identify:

  • Existing team resources that can be used by the team member
  • Individuals in the organization who may be able to provide the resource
  • The impact this resource will have on the team’s overall success; if it is critical, the team may want to “reprioritize” current resources in order to ensure that this critical need is met
