How does this help your team?
How much freedom do teams have to organize their own work according to what works for them? After all, it is very hard to self-manage when everything is managed for you. Can teams pick their own tools? Choose their own goals or decide on how to do their work?
So what can you do when self-management is low? We wrote this guide to help you get the dialogue started in your team.
So what can you do when self-management is low? We wrote this guide to help you get the dialogue started in your team.
We share three short formats that easily fit inside a Sprint Retrospective. Their purpose is to start a dialogue in your team and begin improvement. The formats are based on the Liberating Structures "Conversation Cafe", "Troika Consulting", and "Discovery & Action Dialogue".
So pick the one that you think will work best and take it away!
