Agile manifesto states the importance of individuals and interactions. It is crucial to establish open communication within the team if you want to build a high-performing team. Many different types of interactions take place in each stage of the team-building process.
Building successful teams is a critical factor for succeeding in an agile transformation. Building an agile team requires defining roles, responsibilities, and filling them with resources available on hand. Agile teams need to have a clear focus on the successful completion of a project.
To build an agile team:
- Facilitate commitment by protecting the team from outside distractions to establish a predictable outcome and optimize the value delivered
- Align project and team goals by sharing project vision and aligning team objectives with project objectives to ensure the team objectives fit into the overall goals of the project
- Encourage the team to measure its capacity by tracking and measuring actual deliverables in previous cycles and understanding of their velocity and commitment.
Following the below steps will help you accomplish team collaboration and increased team commitment:
- Facilitate close communication within the team to ensure there is no miscommunication.
- Reduce team distractions to optimize the value delivered.
- Every step of the project, the project vision should be confirmed, and the team should be clear on how their objectives also fit into the overall goals of the project.
- Encourage the team to measure its velocity to gain a better understanding of the team’s capacity.
- Using appropriate tools and approaches to create more accurate forecasts for the team and the stakeholders.
