I don´t remember any conflicts
I once broke my brother’s arm
I felt so insecure and avoided to bring up
my idea based on 10 year of experience

Based upon an exercise described by Patrick Lencioni in the field guide ”Overcoming the five dysfunctions of a team”
• Where are you usually in a conflict?
Mastering conflict
1. Do not hold back your opinions
2. Admit, there is a conflict
3. Discuss and define the “real issue” within the team
4. Listen to each others arguments
5. Make a decision (everyone can live with)
This is just an example. Teams
should make their own conflict norms
Based upon an exercise described by Patrick Lencioni in the field guide ”Overcoming the five dysfunctions of a team”
• Agree on team conflict norms

Agreed team conflict norms
Team sharing their weaknesses, skill deficiencies, shortcomings, mistakes, requests for help, etc.
Learnings – after about 20 teamsSharing childhood challenges – makes people talk which improve their ability to collaborate – in seconds
Discussions about conflict and creation of ”team conflict norms” opens up for debating which improve the outcome of sprint planning, daily standup etc
Team maturity exercises are an essential part of any change management effort, such as, an agile transformation
Now, I am excited to listen to your experience and hopefully getting to learn additional useful exercises
Thank You
