Measure team health with Petals

In 2022, I created a simple new framework to help engineering teams become more aware of their overall health called PETALS. We identified and simplified to 5 key dimensions that influence team health:

• Productivity
• Enjoyment
• Teamwork
• Learning
• Stress (or Serenity)

By scoring each dimension out of 5, we can calculate Averages for that individual or across a team of scores. This then creates a simple PETALS visualisation using a RAG (Red, Amber, Green) colour scheme for rapid observability and continuous improvement discussions.
