These are facets that are conspicuously missing from the lives of employees in most organizations I would speculate but with this agile/scrum type methodology these can be the "juice" that keeps the team engaged and productive.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps I am reading too much into it but I tend to ask "why does it work" when I encounter a system rather that taking it at face value, and these are the underlying sub systems I see working to power scrum, well from the very brief introduction I have had from reading your blog.<BR/><BR/>Conversely I have seen many teams loose productivity by having team members slip into a "low energy state" where they just do the minimum necessary, lost in their own little world with little interaction with others, low accountability and perhaps most importantly no clear line between what they are doing and the success of the company. Like a small cog in a big machine.<BR/><BR/>Is the interaction between team members and between teams an active part of these methodologies? I see that as an important producer of "energy" and can push up productivity. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps you should think of putting these posts, when they have grown, together into an ebook, a manifesto for growing entrepreneurs?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11750780070947187264noreply@blogger.com
