THE FIVE DYSFUNCTIONS OF AGILE TEAMS presented by: Bob Hartman, professional Scrum Teacher and Certified Scrum Trainer (CST)

Is your agile team not performing up to the potential you see in them? If so, they may be suffering from internal dysfunctions that can contribute to less than desirable results. When core dysfunctions are left to fester, the end result will often be project failure and the cause will be chalked up to "that's just the way agile sometimes works." Based on his coaching work with hundreds of agile teams, Bob Hartman presents an agile team dysfunction model. Bob shows how he determines which of the five core dysfunctions ("leave me in my silo", "when we communicate it is in email", "others make commitments for us", "don't blame me because I didn't do it" and "hero worshipers) the team may suffer from. He will also demonstrate how he communicates them and most importantly, how he helps teams learn to move past their issues. Learn how teams can achieve greatness once they fully understand their weaknesses and how certain common agile practices can help teams address their weaknesses.
