We will externalize our work as part of the following organization-standard rituals:
Quarterly Strategy Reviews (folder)
Squad Demos (/wiki/spaces/AT/pages/1742471458, are sre)
With Director(s)
In addition to the above org-wide rituals, work with your engineering director to establish a cadence of regular review of the squad’s process and artifacts. For example, the director may request a weekly touchpoint to review the squad’s WIP and artifacts from steps 3-5 below.
...
Cadence | Participants |
|---|---|
Create once | Have an ideation and affinity-mapping (to group into high-level categories) exercise with members of the squad. If possible, invite stakeholders to the session. 🙊 Remind attendees to ideate on a “moment of time” in the user’s journey and to keep it technology-agnostic and not solution-oriented. |
Review and update every 6 months | With members of the squad and stakeholders. |

Cadence | Participants |
|---|---|
Any time a new epic or reasonably sized story is considered for prioritizing in the squad’s backlog. | Members of the squad can do this together as part of their planning and/or grooming process. 🙊 Remind the squad that anything can be measured. Without validation, you would be prioritizing output and not an outcome. |
When appropriate, publish the proposed prioritized opportunity in a Consumer Review Approach Memo.
