When to use

When to Use:
When there is an existing “Team of Teams” that need to coordinate to achieve a short-term objective, such as a Sprint goal.

When NOT to Use (anti-patterns):
When several disconnected teams need to deliver Sprint objectives with few to no dependencies on other teams.

How to Use:

  • Keep to a short timebox (e.g., 15 minutes)
  • Use an immediate “meet-after” to address challenges that do not require all participants and can be addressed immediately
