Find Where Work Gets Stuck
Rank these common sources of friction from biggest to smallest.
Your #1 item will be used to estimate how much team capacity may be getting lost there.
This short diagnostic highlights where work may be losing the most momentum.
Quick diagnostic. In most teams several things create friction. The goal here is simply to identify which one is slowing work down the most right now.
How this works: Drag the items below to rank them from 1 (biggest source of friction) to 5 (smallest).
Your #1 item should represent what is currently slowing work down the most in your team. This tool then estimates the capacity that may be getting lost because of it.
