Building a Strong Team Culture

The principles of agility bring our team together to work towards a common goal, fostering unity and purpose among team members. However, gathering evidence and making informed decisions is vital before beginning any task.

By prioritizing value, we focus on completing the most important tasks first.

We may realize we don’t need to complete all tasks or that some functions are no longer necessary.

Our team believes in the power of collaboration and encourages all members to work together on projects. Our approach centers on identifying the customer and maintaining direct communication with them.

We believe in solving problems and updating stakeholders on project progress.

We manage risks, ensure the quality and reliability of our products, and motivate each other. We delegate tasks within the team and to higher-ups while establishing a framework for collaboration. Our project is broken down into milestones, and our team estimates the work required for each.

Leadership roles emerge and submerge within the context of the team, and external domain experts oversee our work without interfering with our self-organization.

We believe in equality and continuous learning to create a safe and inclusive environment as a team. We hold retrospectives to assess and enhance our teamwork and use blameless post-mortems to understand and address issues in failure cases.

It’s crucial to approach setbacks with a growth mindset and view them as opportunities to learn and grow.

Our approach to challenges and obstacles impacts our team culture. Uncertainty and creativity while providing a structure for learning. It encourages teams to check the final product and the process used to create it.

Promote teamwork and incremental progress toward a common goal. Allow teams to work faster without needing detailed reporting to management.
