Social Contract
A team agreement that anchors positive behaviour and ways of working throughout a project.
What it is
A document the team can refer back to as an anchor for positive behaviour and team values.
When to use it
Used at the start of a project or work stream to set behaviours and ways of working in a way that the team can easily refer to throughout the work.
How to run it
As a team, come together to document your agreed team rules and behaviours. Consider: how will you communicate, work together, help each other, and celebrate wins? Once agreed, make sure everyone signs the contract.
