I was working with a team that was experiencing a serious issue. They were not able to finish the work on time or finish what they planned for the Sprint
There could be many reasons for that, but in this team what I saw when I came it was that they had one task (not story) going on per developer all the time. Stories were not delivered except in the last day of the Sprint.
It was very hard to get the team members to collaborate and feel ownership for what they had planned to deliver.
How do you solve problems like this?
