Peer mentor

Discover the wisdom in your crew.

Results

Learn something new from a crewmate.

Setup

Form pairs.

If you are an odd number of team members, one is the timekeeper.

Now each of you thinks about a micro skill he or she wants to learn from their partner.

Example

This micro skill should be job-related and formulated in the form "subject + verb".

  • understand git-branching,
  • select color combinations,
  • or formulate a friendly rejection.

Please take 5 minutes of your time. It is more important that you learn something than what exactly you learn.

Process

2 rounds of 7 minutes each.

Your partner now has 7 minutes to teach you this micro skill. You can use all available means and media. And of course you are welcome to ask for more information.

After the initial 7 minutes you switch and teach your partner their desired micro skill.

Bonus:

Do not worry if your expert enough for this.

Trust your intuition and explain the first thing that comes into your mind.

And go!
