FACILITATOR PLAYBOOK

How to run it well

Keep the mechanics simple so the team can focus on the conversation.

  1. Start the first round

    Explain that there is no correct answer and brief reasoning is optional.

  2. Vote independently

    Give everyone time to choose before discussing the alternatives.

  3. Explore, then move on

    Invite one or two perspectives and advance while the energy remains high.

SCRUM MASTER TIPS

Small choices that make the activity better

  • Choose dilemmas where both options are defensible.
  • Avoid sensitive identity or personal-finance questions.
  • Keep the pace quick unless a valuable conversation emerges.
