The idea behind the cards

The right check-in for every meeting, always at hand.

Countless meetings take place every day – daily stand-ups, retrospectives, project meetings, team workshops, or strategy meetings. Often they start hectically, unprepared, or superficially. Yet, the beginning is the most important moment: this is where it's decided whether participants open up, whether genuine collaboration emerges, and whether the meeting unfolds its full potential. This is exactly where the Check-In Cards come in – they are the perfect tool for agile teams, Scrum Masters, coaches, and leaders who want to make their meetings more human, structured, and effective.

With 52 varied questions, the Check-In Cards help to make the team's mood visible, openly share needs, and create an appreciative atmosphere. The questions are tailored to different meeting formats – from a short daily stand-up to an in-depth retrospective. Teams benefit from more openness, focus, and psychological safety – important factors for successful collaboration in agile organizations.

The card set was developed by experienced Agile Coaches and is based on proven methods from team development, agile facilitation, and New Work practices. It helps teams to open their meetings purposefully, strengthen trust, and foster team spirit. Whether in the office, remote, or hybrid – the Check-In Cards are versatile and ensure that meetings are not only efficient but also connect people.

Start every meeting better now – with the Check-In Cards for agile work, team workshops, and effective communication. The set contains 52 question cards, 3 explanation cards, and clear instructions for immediate use.

Who needs the CHECK-IN CARDS?

The Check-In Cards improve the start of meetings in almost all team and organizational constellations. They are especially helpful for Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches who regularly facilitate Dailies, Retrospectives, or workshops and want to strengthen team spirit.

As a leader in agile or traditional teams, Check-In Cards help you start meetings more intentionally, make moods visible, and foster openness in collaboration. This way, you create a good foundation for successful decisions and better results from the very beginning.

If you, as a trainer, coach, or facilitator, guide teams, leaders, or project groups, you use the Check-In Cards to actively shape the introduction to workshops, training sessions, or strategy meetings. The cards are also excellent as a high-quality give-away or working material for participants in seminars and training courses.

Here's how it works

Before a meeting really gets started, it's time for your Check-In Cards. At the beginning, either the moderator or a team member draws a card and reads out the check-in question. Alternatively, the team can choose a suitable question together.

All participants now have the opportunity to answer the question – voluntarily and without discussion. Each answer helps to make moods, needs or expectations visible. Everyone can openly share what is currently important – or simply listen.

After the short check-in round, the meeting starts with more clarity, focus and energy. Different perspectives have been heard, possible uncertainties addressed, and the team feels better connected.

With the Check-In Cards, an everyday meeting start becomes a real added value for team dynamics, collaboration and psychological safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

For which meetings are the check-in cards suitable?

The cards are perfect for dailies, retrospectives, team workshops, strategy meetings, and all other formats where you want to start together - whether remote, hybrid, or on-site.

Do all team members have to answer the question?

No, it's voluntary. If you prefer, you can simply say "I pass." Listening is just as much a part of the check-in as actively answering.

Do the check-in cards also work remotely?

Yes! You can easily use the cards in online meetings too. Simply read out the question or show it on camera or via a shared screen.

How long does a check-in with the cards take?

Depending on the team size and question, only a few minutes. Typically, 1–2 minutes per person are sufficient for a short, effective round.

Are there different difficulty levels for the questions?

Yes, the cards are divided into three levels: Beginner, Advanced, and Pro. This allows you to choose the appropriate question depending on the situation and team.

What differentiates check-in cards from regular icebreaker questions?

Check-ins are more than just "warm-ups". They create psychological safety, encourage openness, and help teams communicate honestly – suitable for any work context.

Who are the Check-In Cards particularly suitable for?

For Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, leaders, facilitators, and anyone who wants to make meetings more engaging, mindful, and effective.

Can I also use the cards in training sessions or workshops?

Absolutely! The Check-In Cards are also a great tool for workshops, seminars, or offsites to engage participants from the start and activate the group.
