How should we form new Scrum teams?
In my courses and coaching, I’m often asked how a Scrum team should be formed. Since the Scrum Guide gives no guidance on this, organizations usually decide to have managers form these new teams. Sadly, this approach doesn’t work well in the long run for a myriad of reasons.
Thankfully, there’s a better way.
On today’s show, I’ll have a conversation with Adam Hsu, Gabe Abella, Jason Newberg, and Natalie Veilleux of JP Morgan Chase, whom I met while giving an opening keynote at their internal developer’s conference last year. These four fantastic agile coaches use the approach I recommend to all my clients regarding forming teams. I think you’ll benefit from hearing their real-world experience forming teams.
