I bet the team's SMEs are just thrilled to be 'continuously working on repetitive tasks'. Sounds like a recipe for burnout and low morale. They need to shake things up, not just add more warm bodies.

I can just imagine the team-building activity, A, being a trust fall exercise or something equally cringeworthy. Not the best way to solve this issue, in my opinion.

Add more resources? Seriously, D? That's just throwing more bodies at the problem without addressing the root cause. The team needs to take a step back and rethink their workflow.

I think option C is also a good idea. Performing a value stream analysis can help identify areas for improvement.

Adding more resources to the team may help with the tasks, but it's important to also consider other options to keep the team motivated.

Hmm, seems like the team is stuck in a rut. I think C is the way to go - a value stream analysis could really help them identify the bottlenecks and find ways to streamline their processes.
