Debriefing regularly is the simplest way to jump-start your team’s learning and improvement. It makes it easy to think about fast ways to improve, share them with your team, and implement them immediately.

1. Click on the “New Debrief” button
   
2. If you belong to several teams, choose the team this debrief is most relevant to. If you’re only in one team, you’ll automatically move to the next step
   
   
3. Your debrief form will open. Keep in mind that each team has its own, customized debrief format, so yours might look different than a colleague’s on another team.
4. Write your debrief lessons, keeping in mind that some questions might be required. You can write up to 5 lessons in one debrief. 
5. As you write, you’ll see a bird icon pop up.  Click on it to activate Shamaym Assistant, your personalized lesson coach, ready to offer feedback on your lessons.
   
6. Adding tags to your lesson helps teammates understand what the debrief is about, and helps everyone search for it more easily later.
   
   
7. You can also assign this lesson as an action item, or make it a brief.
   
   
8. Additionally, you can invite others to collaborate. To learn more about collaborative debriefing, take a look at the collaboration video/ tab
9. By default, the debrief will be shared with your team, but you can change the sharing settings on your debrief to control who can read it once it’s published. This can be only you, you and your manager, your whole team, the entire company, or specific people that you choose.
   Scroll all the way up to change the sharing settings.
   
10. When you finish writing your debrief, click “publish” and your debrief will be shared based on the settings you selected. 
    The debrief will appear on your Shamaym homepage, and in your inbox
    
     
11. If you have just one valuable piece of learning to share with the team, you can also write your lesson in the “new lesson” field at the center of your homepage. Note that Shamaym Assistant won’t offer feedback when you write a single lesson. Type in your lesson, choose a team, add tags, and click submit. This lesson will also appear on your feed and in your inbox.

Communicate with your team by @mentioning people as you write your debrief. 

• In any free-text component*, you can add a “@” and pick the user which you’d like to mention.
  *Currently not available on the  “table” component
  

• You can mention anyone from the company/ organization. The users’ list is sorted a-z by default and is updated according to what you type. Later on, it will be sorted according to your most recent mentions.
  

• The @mentioned person will be added to the viewers’ list of the debrief (will get permission to watch it).

• When you’re @mentioned, you’ll see it on the platform
  

Notifications

• When you’re @mentioned, you’ll get a notification in the bell icon on the platform
  

  

   
• You’ll also get an email notification.
  *Changing the team’s/ personal notifications settings does not affect the email notification about the mention, it is always sent. In the future, you will be able to customize the notifications for the mentions on the notifications center.

• The @mention email notification is instead of the debrief publication notification, so you won’t get multiple notifications for the same debrief. 
• If you were mentioned a few times on the same debrief, you’ll get only 1 notification
• If you were mentioned in a collaborative debrief:
  • If you are a collaborator: you’ll get the notification in real-time
  • If you are not a collaborator: you’ll get the notification once the debrief is published

When writing a new debrief, you can select between 2 views:

1. Step view: each question appears separately on each page. You can navigate using the “Next” button, making it more easy for you to focus at one question at a time.
   
2. Scroll view: all questions appear in a continuos view. You can scroll up and down, making it easier for you to cut-paste or copy-paste your input across the different questions and quickly edit what you’re writing across the debrief efficiently and promptly.
   
   
   
3. The platform will remember your selection and the next time you will create a new debrief, it will be open with the preferred view.
