Team Health Check

Download Word

Based on the Spotify Squad Health Check model — a lightweight, team-run self-assessment across qualitative dimensions, distinct from the delivery metrics on the Velocity Chart and Sprint Status Report. Run once at the Sprint 4 midpoint and again at Sprint 8 closeout, in each team's own retrospective, so trend arrows reflect the team's own view of its health, not an external audit.

Green — healthy Amber — some concern Red — needs attention

What moved, and why: Falcon's "Easy to Release" and "Tech Quality" both improved from Amber to Green after the Sprint 2 retrospective action items (dependency-owner tracking, standing Scrum-of-Scrums agenda item) took hold. Anchor's "Speed" moved from Red to Amber but not to Green — the Sprint 7 migration-remediation load (see CR-02) was genuinely heavy, and the team was honest that it strained their pace even though the outcome landed on time. Neither team hit a Red on anything by program end, which C. Tyrrell flagged as a good sign at the Program Closeout — but "Speed" on both teams staying Amber is deliberately not glossed over here.
