Celebrate as a Tribe

When you’ve celebrated moving from 1 to 2, and then from 2 to 3,

you gain confidence that you can make the next advance

—Chip and Dan Heath, Switch.

Celebrating is another great way to create connections between teams. When doing so it is important to remember to celebrate as a tribe, not individual teams. The notion that the tribe succeeds and fails as one, not as individual teams, needs to become part of the tribe’s DNA. Celebrations don’t always have to be related to day-to-day business. You can and should celebrate birthdays, milestones, holidays, or even International Talk Like a Pirate Day if you so wish. Just think about this for a minute: if you have a tribe of 100 people you can probably manage to have birthday cake roughly twice a week every week of the year! And we already know that when we “do food” we become fonder of one another. It’s win-win!

When considering milestones there are the more traditional end-of-project celebrations, or when I worked in finance the end of financial year always seemed to be a cause for celebration. However, not every milestone needs to be delivery or outcome focused. With the EDW tribe we celebrated our first 50 Sprints with a day of festivities including a table soccer tournament and many, many rounds of Wii Rock Band.
