Takeaways * Agile teams are defined by a shared goal and purpose, dependency on each other, and a shared history. * A team's mindset, including beliefs such as sensing and responding, collecting feedback, and adapting, is crucial for agility. * Measuring team performance is difficult and context-dependent; comparing teams for inspiration and learning is more effective. * Designing teams should involve self-selection and giving teams time to learn and become high-performing. * Challenges in implementing agile practices can be overcome by focusing on fun, ownership, and continuous learning. * Organizations and leadership should have open conversations with teams, listen to their perspectives, and understand their challenges.
