Burndown Chart Template
Works best for:
Project Management, Agile Workflows, Mapping
Whoa whoa whoa, pace yourself! That means knowing how much work is left—and, based on the delivery date, how much time you’ll have for each task. Perfect for project managers, Burndown Charts create a clear visualization of a team’s remaining work to help get it done on time and on budget. These charts have other big benefits, too. They encourage transparency and help individual team members be aware of their work pace so they can adjust or maintain it.
Penny Game
Works best for:
Agile
The Penny Game is a simulation exercise that illustrates the impact of batch size and work in progress on cycle time and throughput. By tracking the flow of pennies through a production system, teams learn how to identify bottlenecks, optimize processes, and improve efficiency. This template offers a practical way to explore Lean principles and drive continuous improvement, empowering teams to streamline their workflow and deliver value more predictably.
Reverse Brainstorming Template
Works best for:
Ideation, Brainstorming, Team Meetings
Reverse brainstorming is a technique that prompts a group to think of problems, rather than solutions. Because we naturally think of problems, it’s a great way to get a group to anticipate problems that may occur during a project. To engage in reverse brainstorming, start by identifying the problem, and then think of things that might exacerbate it. Ask your team to generate ideas around ways in which the problem could get worse. Reverse the problems into solutions again, and then evaluate your ideas.

This template enables teams to visualize key process elements and interdependencies, empowering them to identify areas for improvement and optimize workflow efficiency. By promoting transparency and collaboration, the SIPOC Process Map empowers organizations to deliver value more effectively and satisfy customer needs.
