Team Overview
What is a Team Overview?
A team overview is a straightforward document summarising a team's roles, responsibilities, skills, and key details.
In game development, it serves as a central reference, making it easier for producers, designers, and team members to understand the team’s structure and coordinate efforts. The document typically includes team members' names, contact details, roles, expertise, current tasks, availability, and relevant preferences or experience.
Why use Team Overviews?
A team overview improves communication and collaboration by clarifying who does what. It lets team members know who to approach for specific tasks or issues and simplifies task delegation and resource management. Highlighting gaps in skills or resources early in the project ensures problems can be addressed proactively. For producers, it is an invaluable tool for onboarding new team members, offering a quick and comprehensive view of the existing structure. Additionally, displaying roles helps resolve potential conflicts or bottlenecks in the workflow.
