Team structure…

Building a framework for teams to thrive.


How do we structure our teams and processes to be resilient?


We should set up our teams so that team members can work within their competencies, and grow as needed.


Set the teams up so they can work across projects fluidly.


Set up clear roles, and establish understood and agreed upon expectations.


Design process.


Process should be set up to support the team and thosethe team works with.

Team culture


Build and environment where team members are free to be themselves.


Build an environment where the team feels comfortable voicing their opinions.


Build and environment where the team feels supported.
