Different cultures in one team
Different ways of expressing oneself
Different ways of looking at things

Can you think of advantages to have different cultures in one team?If yes, what could be done to make best use of these advantages?

Dichotomy GameOriginal idea: http://www.thiagi.com/pfp/IE4H/september2007.html#Framegame
Purpose:Understand and accept cultural diversity
Please form groups of 3 persons. One person in each group is the judge.Look at the 1st dichotomy and think about pros and cons to support each side of the dichotomy.
The 2 persons in the group take the 2 words of the dichotomy (if in doubt the judge decides who takes which word). Find arguments to support this side and to attack the other side. (1 min)
Now each person presents the arguments (1 min per person). The judge evaluates by secretly distributing 13 points between the presentations. Write the numbers on a sheet of paper and place them upside down next to the participants.

Debriefing Options
Do you believe that people who belong to different cultures and different groups may look at each of these dichotomies differently? Are there any dichotomies about which all human beings will have the same preference?How difficult was it to come up with positive points about the side that you personally dislike? Similarly, how difficult was it to come up with negative points about the side that you personally like? What did you learn in this game that can help you to make decisions or resolve conflicts? How does this game relate to the Scrumvalues “Focus, Respect, Commitment, Openness, Courage”?

From a supplier to a partner
…biggest benefits of agile development in:Customer is more satisfied and motivatedFast feedback from the customerimplemented is only what is really neededFlexibility with the sprintsProduct Backlog conceptBetter stability of the complex systemduring developmentBetter know how sharing through features development instead of subsystems developmentSelf confidence and self organizationof the teamsBetter communication and collaborationin a team
…main obstacles for agile development in:Trend to “processes over people”in the organizationPeople's resistance to scrum or being agile“Misshaping” of Scrum to the organization– forming of a “cross site” team People's mindsetCommunication in a multi team project not settled and synchronization incomplete (everybody communicates with everybody)Inflexible project plan compromises qualityUser stories are too big (over more iterations)Vertical approach in a project with many teams can lead to ineffectiveness
