Nick Nielsen: Failing to help a team become a real team, a Scrum Master anti-pattern

Agile is about learning and becoming resilient. This is true both for teams as well as for Scrum Masters. In this episode we talk about how someimtes we fail to help teams become “teams”. This tsory starts with a team that had changed its composition, abnd some external consultants were brought in. 

In this episode, we talk about Heidi Helfand’s work on Dynamic Re-teaming, and the Tuckman’s stages of group formation.
