Purposedifferent
When effort only needs to be classified roughly, it makes comparability more important than false precision. It helps sort work quickly into manageable sizes.When a team is starting fresh or working past each other, Team Charter clarifies the shared working basis. It visibly sets out how collaboration, decision paths, and mutual conduct should work day to day.When many tasks need to be classified quickly, it sorts them by perceived effort and similarity. It reduces the effort of fine-grained estimation for large volumes.
