Details
Purpose: Agile interactions refers to how individuals, teams, and departments communicate and coordinate effectively. In complex organizations, good interaction is necessary to keep work moving and to align the efforts of multiple teams with organizational goals.
How it works: Teams engage in regular, structured interactions such as daily stand-ups, planning meetings, and retrospectives. These interactions are centered around visual boards and shared goals, helping to ensure that everyone stays aligned and that issues are addressed quickly.
Why it's important: Interaction ensures that the right people are talking about the right things at the right time. It creates a feedback loop that allows teams to adjust quickly if priorities change or if problems arise.
Example: An organization might hold regular cross-functional synchronization meetings where team leads from development, marketing, and sales align on the status of an ongoing product launch and adjust their plans as needed.
