What’s Next?

In this chapter, you’ve seen the benefits a team gains from an understanding of the context of its work. Your team examined the boundaries and interactions associated with its work. You identified and reviewed the material and intangible resources the team will need. You helped the team gain the context of time by forecasting coming events with a probability chart. Coming up next, Jim York, an agile coach and project management consultant, tells a story of clarifying purpose and its impact on shifting the context.

In the chapter that follows, you’ll discover how the benefits of a liftoff and agile chartering continue long after the initial event. You’ll also learn how to improve lifting off for future teams.
