Supporting team knowledge and loyalty with a specialist dictionary
At blueworks, we believe that continuous learning and knowledge sharing are the keys to success in our fast-paced technology world. But who says that learning always has to be strict and serious? With our “Terms Glossary”, we have introduced an entertaining and educational tradition that strengthens our team knowledge and brings us closer together. Find out how we combine education and fun and why our “technical dictionary” has become an integral part of our sprint meetings.
What is the blueworks technical dictionary?
The “technical dictionary” is a playful tradition that we created to expand our team knowledge and strengthen our bond. Originally conceived as a method to improve our search engine optimization, it has become an integral part of our sprint meetings and serves as a humorous “icebreaker”. The “technical dictionary” combines continuous learning with hilarity and has proven to be an effective way of strengthening team spirit.
How does it work?
In each sprint, each team member selects a specific SAP ALM term to research and define during the sprint. These terms can be anything from common to lesser known, and even humorous variations. The fun begins when we meet in our sprint meetings and everyone introduces and explains their chosen terms. This process lightens the atmosphere and at the same time strengthens our expertise and understanding of SAP ALM.
Why is this so valuable?
This simple but effective method has a number of advantages:
- Knowledge expansion: By continuously researching and explaining SAP ALM terms, the team expands its expertise and stays up to date with the latest industry developments.
- Team bonding: introducing the concepts in a relaxed and fun atmosphere strengthens the sense of community and promotes a positive and productive working environment.
- Engagement: The combination of education and entertainment increases the engagement and motivation of the team. Everyone is looking forward to presenting their new findings and learning from the others.
The tradition of the “specialist dictionary” shows that learning and fun can go hand in hand. By fostering a climate of laughter and joy, we make learning a fun and enjoyable experience that brings the team closer together and helps us grow as a unit.
At blueworks, we believe that a strong team culture and continuous learning are key to success.
