After agreeing to the Spatz Team Charter the SpatzAI procedure begins with a simple “Verbal Caution” for addressing micro-conflicts in teams. When a team member notices unreasonable behavior, such as dogmatic and unfair naysaying during a discussion, they initiate this (pause) step. 

0. The aggrieved respectfully gives a verbal caution to the individual, highlighting the issue and requesting a course-correction. This step aims to quickly resolve potential micro-conflicts by offering immediate feedback, hoping the cautioned party will acknowledge and adjust their behavior, thus resolving the issue at an early stage, and they move on. 

  • If unresolved, the objector may issue an Official Caution, and begin to document their spat, using the Spatz app. This initial step is crucial for preventing minor spats from escalating into more serious conflicts later on.
