In this flow, you'll learn how to monitor your team’s workload and capacity over time to prevent burnout and ensure a balanced distribution of tasks. This guide helps you track trends in task completion, identify overburdened squads or individuals, and optimize task priorities for sustainable team performance.
Step 1: Select the Date Range
Let’s start by reviewing team health and capacity metrics over a 90-day period to identify any potential signs of burnout or workload imbalance.
- How: Use the Date Filter to select a 90-day period. Focus on metrics like Completed Tasks and Carryover.
- What to Look For: Look for trends in declining task completion rates or increasing carryover, as these may indicate that your team is overloaded or struggling to keep up with the sprint workload.
- Why: Tracking these trends over time helps detect early signs of burnout or overplanning, giving you the opportunity to adjust the workload before it affects the team's productivity.
Step 2: Filter by Player or Squad
If you notice workload imbalance or declining completion rates, it’s essential to pinpoint which squads or individuals are most affected.
- How:Apply the Players or Squad Filter to analyze task completion and carryover rates for individual team members or squads.
- What to Look For: Check for specific individuals or squads with consistently high carryover or low task completion, which could indicate that they are overburdened or struggling to meet sprint goals.
- Why: Monitoring individual and squad capacity allows you to make targeted adjustments, ensuring that workloads are distributed fairly and that no one is at risk of burnout.
