I am going to add allowing full self empowerment for the team, which may violate you first two points though, The roles should be able to fluctuate over time, and I think some of the most interesting things can happen when the makeup of a team changesLaurie Younghttp://www.new-bamboo.co.uk/trainingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165932439628684378.post-45853545422840562832010-01-27T22:42:51.023-08:002010-01-27T22:42:51.023-08:00You make many solid points here; all of which I ag...You make many solid points here; all of which I agree with.<br /><br />I think continuity of membership for the team is a significant point that many organizations do not consider. Even experienced practitioners need time to get acclimated to working with one another before they can reach peak performance. It may take experienced Agilists less time to move through storming -> forming -> norming, but the phases are natural and inevitable for any "new" team.<br /><br />Retrospectives are critical. A retrospective needs to be an open and honest communication session without allowing for blame or a general gripe session. Most important are lessons learned and the action items the team will use to reinforce the learning. Many team do retrospectives and even address open technical or blocking issues, but fail to address critical root causes such as poor requirements, bad estimates, or unrealistic schedules. Without addressing the root causes, those teams are resigned to repeat the failures of the past.<br /><br />Keep up the good work!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17064897772691908215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165932439628684378.post-13760407613113704722009-07-08T11:33:04.807-07:002009-07-08T11:33:04.807-07:00Thanks for the additional tips Young!!

Definitely agree that it's not easy to keep teams together in reality - but if management and the organization really choose to break up a stable team, at least using Agile, they can see how that decision ended up affecting the teams' velocities - for better or worse!! I hope the growth of individuals on a team can come from taking on additional responsibilities/roles with each new project the team takes on...Grant H.

Some might say it's just another data point. And it indeed is just another data point. But it is the one that will determine whether team members will stay in "high state" or not. ;)<br /><br />A couple of more tips from my experience. <br /><br />Make sure to celebrate the sucess very often. At the minimum, each sprint retrospective needs to include celebration. As Grant suggests, even a failure is a reason to celebrate.<br /><br />In an ideal environment, it is the company (or perhaps the entire division or department) that has adopted Agile and not just a couple of teams. It is when there is no company-wide adoption that you need to worry about keeping the team with consistent velocity together. And it is not easy to do in reality. Resources need to be managed at the top level and it can be quite frustrating to see a group of people that insist always working together. In my opinion, it might also hurt the moral of individual team member and her growth potential could be crippled.Younghttp://blogs.msdn.com/youngjoo/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-165932439628684378.post-74908910531164682972009-07-01T12:26:56.312-07:002009-07-01T12:26:56.312-07:00I tend to believe these are methods that should be...I tend to believe these are methods that should be followed with all Agile methods in general - especially if you have a non-distributed team. But, I'll admit that of the different Agile flavors out there, Scrum seems to be one I've more heavily leaned upon as a basis for most of my Agile practices for new teams I've worked with. As with most SDLC/project management processes though, it's really about finding the right one that will work with your particular situation.Grant H.
