What is a capacity model (and why does your team need one)?
When I started managing projects that involved multiple stakeholders across multiple teams, I quickly realized that guessing how much work my own team could handle just wasn’t enough. We needed a clear way to see if we had too much on our plates or if we could take on more. That’s when I learned about capacity models, which are an easy way to understand how much work your team can handle without feeling overwhelmed.
