Working Agreements
A Working Agreement is a short set of guidelines created by the Team, for the Team, that establishes what the expectations of the Team are for one another. A well-written Agreement should help establish, as well as reinforce, a clear, shared understanding between all Team members about what they acknowledge is good behaviour and communication. It is usually referred to as a single “Working Agreement”, but in reality it’s comprised of many individual agreements for each topic or issue.
