Dominika Bula: How To Grow Self-Sufficient Agile Teams

Read the full Show Notes and search through the world’s largest audio library on Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.

Dominika shares a story of a self-sufficient team that fully embraced Scrum values, communicated openly, and thrived without her direct involvement. The team had developed a strong internal support system, understood their code of conduct, and took ownership of their decisions. For Dominika, the ultimate sign of success is when the team operates independently, learning and growing together.

Self-reflection Question: Is your team ready to operate independently, or do they still rely on you for guidance? Leave your answer in the comments, let’s get this conversation started! 

 


 

Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Circles of Control

Dominika recommends the "Circles of Control" retrospective format, a powerful tool to help teams identify what they can control, what they can influence, and what is outside of their control. This format opens up discussions on different perspectives within the team and creates a safe space for sharing. It also helps teams focus on what they can impact, driving actionable improvements.
