Overview
The Capacity Planning Notion template is designed to help teams gauge and strategise work distribution and future workload. It consists of a four-step guide that encourages team members to list their weekly tasks and the time spent on each. This aids in creating a snapshot of individual and team capacity.
Individual Time Allocation: Each member lists their weekly tasks, the hours required, and the percentage of time spent on each task.
Team Capacity for Project: This section aggregates the team's capacity, breaking it down by role and individual. It shows the percentage of time and hours each member can allocate to the project.
The template aims to provide a comprehensive view of how team members are spending their time, allowing for better project planning and resource allocation. It's particularly useful for sprint planning sessions and can be revisited periodically to adjust plans as needed.
