Getting a team to learn and practice Scrum is not enough. There’s a critical aspect to a team’s own success and further development: feeling ownership over the product they are developing.
In this episode we discuss how the lack of ownership in the team led to bigger and bigger problems.
We also discuss how to work with manager, who sometimes are the biggest blocker for the team to evolve.
