Leading Effective Agile Committees

The chapter covers how to select appropriate committee members to make well-formed cross-functional teams who have the skills and interest needed to address the committee charge. It offers advice for convening the committee for the first time, including suggestions for a committee retreat, team building activities, and a committee charter. Readers will learn strategies to help committees set shared goals, create a committee backlog, and organize the committee work using sprints.
