Executing a software project has many challenges. For a team to function smoothly and deliver working solution we have to constantly look for impediments and find ways to resolve them.
In this presentation we will discuss how to proactively engage the team in identifying impediments, recognize what's going well, and understand what needs improvement. Then discuss ways to implement and measure the progress the team makes.
