Team charter

For teams to work, team members should put the needs of the team above their own. They should:

• Arrive for stand-ups and meetings on time.
• Keep discussions and investigations on track.
• Encourage a focus on team goals.
• Help unblock other team members before starting on new work.
• Mentor new or less experienced team members.
• Avoid “winning” arguments and, instead, agree to explore options.
