I've written a lot about mistakes we made and the parts of Scrum we didn't follow, to our detriment. We've got a late, still as yet unlaunched project, reduced credibility and lowered morale. And yet, even with all this going against us we still have one big thing going for us: an incredibly strong team. In this part of My First Agile Project I'm going to address this issue of teams and the importance of strong teams in Agile projects.

Read on for 5 important issues teams should look for. Some are good things, some are bad. But I believe we have a strong team and hopefully our lessons can provide some insight into building a strong Agile team.
