Getting started with programs (teams of teams)
Programs are an enterprise-only feature.
A PROGRAM is a group of teams that come together to run their own meetings. This allows you to run scaled retrospectives and health checks with multiple teams at the same time, without giving access to a team to everyone else's data.
- A team can be a member of multiple programs.
- Users can be a member of multiple teams in a program - they'll only be invited once.
- A person can be a Program Admin.
- A program counts as a single team for subscription purposes.
When running a retrospective or health check, all users who are invited will be able to see the ideas, comments, and actions in the program.
Example program setup:
The diagram below indicates a program set up in TeamRetro.
To create a program:
In the account TEAMS page, click CREATE PROGRAM. If you don't see this option, you may not be on a subscription plan that includes programs or have enough team slots remaining - contact info@teamretro.com for more information.
Provide a name for your program. Optionally upload a logo, assign a color, and add a tag for further customizations.
Select which existing teams you wish to invite into the program.
You must be a member of a team in order to invite it to a program.
Add any additional users you wish to invite who may not be members of an existing team. This could include the program administrator, management, etc. Members with the ADMIN role will have permission to view program reports and invite users/teams later.
- Click CREATE PROGRAM.
Once your program has been created, it will appear on your HOME page as well as on the TEAMS tab, and you can use it like any TeamRetro team.
Navigating to the MEMBERS tab within your program, you will see the list of teams and users that are currently part of the program. As an Admin, you will have the option to:
- SELECT TEAMS - invite additional teams or remove any existing teams from the program.
- INVITE MEMBERS - invite additional users who may not be members of any teams.
