While you can do the Self Assessment with the book alone by entering your personal answers in the column in front of the questions, if you want to make this assessment more of a team effort you will need to use the Excel Spreadsheet.
The spreadsheet is set up for teams up to 10 participants. Each of the participants has a column for their answers.
The additional value of the Spreadsheet is that the tool uses the answers from all participants and turns it into graphs and overviews that help you make decisions on the gaps and areas of improvement.
Pro Tip: while the questions in the book are identical to the questions in the spreadsheet there may be a discrepancy in the order in which the questions are listed. Don’t worry about this too much as the questions are exactly the same, use the ctrl-F or command-F function when you need to search for a specific question in the spreadsheet.
