@sherryxena can you expand on this?
@sherryxena is this in reference to the pain associated with waiting for a response? I personally have found that to be one of my biggest hurdles.
My biggest challenge with asynch collaboration with agile teams are getting them to do the pre work. IE: adding commentary into docs; providing timely responses; defining what they actually need to get things done.
@hi_marizsa thanks for adding your thoughts. I agree, engagement is quite difficult, it comes down to the feeling of accountability and trust.
@roycewong which is why we enable asynch work but I think key here is accountability (not to me I’m the PgM, but the team needs is among themselves.)
