# Team Working Agreement, an AI-facilitated workshop for clearer collaboration

Team Working Agreement is a 70-minute workshop for 3 to 12 people. It turns individual expectations about communication, decisions and everyday collaboration into explicit, observable agreements the team can use and review.

Clarvelo runs the process so everyone, including the diligent person who arranged the meeting, can contribute. It is marketing source for the landing page, not an executable workshop script.

## When to use Team Working Agreement

Use it when a team is forming, changing membership or working patterns, or repeatedly meeting friction around ordinary habits. It is useful for engineering, product, delivery and cross-functional teams that need to make assumptions visible before they become grievances.

The outcome is a working agreement draft built from observable behaviours, with trade-offs and dissent retained, a clear decision state, and one concrete improvement to a shared ritual or habit.

## The 70-minute format

### Round Robin: 25 minutes

Each person contributes a concrete expectation about working norms and collaboration. Specific examples and refinements create useful raw material while ensuring quieter voices enter the session early.

### Democratic Discussion: 25 minutes

The group examines evidence, objections, trade-offs and conditions for agreement. Clarvelo keeps the conversation tied to explicit working agreements rather than agreeable but vague values.

### Theme Sort: 15 minutes

Participants group related items, name themes in plain language and keep important outliers visible. The discussed material becomes a manageable set of candidate agreements.

### Blind Vote: 5 minutes

Everyone votes privately for the options most likely to improve everyday collaboration. Votes appear together, reducing the effect of hierarchy, confidence and speaking order.

## The value of AI facilitation

Clarvelo is the facilitator. It collects multi-participant input, protects the timeboxes, synthesises without hiding dissent, manages each transition and runs the vote. The output remains connected from initial expectation through discussion and grouping to the final decision.

Teams get reliable process facilitation for routine work without needing a consultant budget each time membership changes or habits need attention. The organiser participates on equal terms instead of chairing, taking notes and watching the clock.
