Agile
The Penny Game is a simulation exercise that illustrates the impact of batch size and work in progress on cycle time and throughput. By tracking the flow of pennies through a production system, teams learn how to identify bottlenecks, optimize processes, and improve efficiency. This template offers a practical way to explore Lean principles and drive continuous improvement, empowering teams to streamline their workflow and deliver value more predictably.
DMAIC Analysis Template
Works best for:
Agile Methodology, Design Thinking, Operations
Processes might not seem like the funnest thing to dive into and examine, but wow can it pay off—a more efficient process can lead to serious cost savings and a better product. That’s what DMAIC analysis does. Developed as part of the Six Sigma initiative, DMAIC is a data-driven quality strategy for streamlining processes and resolving issues. The technique is broken into five fundamental steps that are followed in order: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control.

Kanban Pizza Game
Works best for:
Agile, Kanban
The Kanban Pizza Game is an interactive way for teams to learn and apply Kanban principles. By simulating a pizza delivery process, teams experience how to visualize work, limit work in progress, and optimize flow. Through rounds of iteration and reflection, participants gain insights into continuous improvement and lean thinking, fostering collaboration and driving efficiency. Get ready to slice through inefficiencies and deliver value faster with the Kanban Pizza Game!
Sailboat Retro
Works best for:
Retrospectives, Agile Methodology, Meetings
The Sailboat Retrospective template offers a metaphorical journey through past iterations and future goals, likening the retrospective process to sailing a boat. It provides elements for identifying driving forces (winds), restraining forces (anchors), and destination (goal). This template enables teams to reflect on what propels them forward, what holds them back, and where they want to go next. By promoting visualization and metaphorical thinking, the Sailboat Retrospective empowers teams to navigate challenges, set sail towards their objectives, and steer towards success effectively.
Agile Retrospective
