Conclude sprint cycles with a retrospective meeting to iterate & improve processes

Limit the quantity and frequency of ad-hoc requests outside of sprint work

COLLABORATIONFRAMEWORK

An open floor plan encourages regular collaboration and communication

Common areas for both work and relaxation help employees leave confined work spaces

more effectively

Focus on leadership and inspiration, not top-down management

Help employees focus on achieving comprehensive business goals

Avoid departmental silos, focus instead on integrating teams for a common purpose
