In this podcast recorded at Agile 2019, Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Johanna Rothman & Mark Kilby about their book From Chaos to Successful Distributed Agile Teams Why listen to this podcast: • There are important mindset shifts that are needed to help enable distributed teams to be effective • You can’t take practices and approaches that are designed for co-located teams and apply them to distributed teams without adapting them to the new context • Distributed teams need to identify and align on their hours of overlap • Transparency and experimentation are important for a distributed team to build their culture • Communication needs to include personal context, not just focusing on the work but get to know the people • Let the teams identify and evolve their own ways of working, do not impose it from above More on this: Quick scan our curated show notes on InfoQ bit.ly/2Jwg9u5 You can also subscribe to the InfoQ newsletter to receive weekly updates on the hottest topics from professional software development. bit.ly/24x3IVq Subscribe: www.youtube.com/infoq Like InfoQ on Facebook: bit.ly/2jmlyG8 Follow on Twitter: twitter.com/InfoQ Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/infoq Check the landing page on InfoQ: bit.ly/2Jwg9u5
