Presentation Title: When Team Culture and Company Culture Does Not Mix: Social Deviance

Track: Advancing Agility

Presentation Time: 9:15am
Duration: 90 minutes

A high-performing agile team is tight knit. They have worked hard to become a cohesive unit and have developed a bond. This chemistry can be thrown off balance when someone is added to the team in the middle of a project. It does not matter how flexible, capable, or agile savvy the new team member is. If they have not been involved in the care and nurturing of the team's culture and is not invested in the same way that the other team members are. When the new team member is not flexible, capable or agile savvy, the effect can be devastating.
