Agile teams performs best when they both have an agile mindest and make use of agile methods. Then they will have good chances to reach the desired state of performing as a “High Performing Team”.  During that journey a focused off-site session can be very useful – either as a jumpstart and education session in the beginning or as a coaching session when things might not work as expected.

As a leader for agile teams and an agile organization it’s crucial to understand the agile principles and values and constantly growing an agile mindset. Highly recommended that all leaders/managers take their time to talk those things through. Combine agile education with team coaching sessions off-site will give the start you need.
