Squads delivering on different projects within the same strategic priority are grouped together and called “Tribes’’. ·All Squad members are “Discipline’’ practitioners and are dynamically allocated to Squads through Disciplines:oDisciplines are the ‘homes’ for practitioners to develop their professional excellence and to maintain a common approach to similar activities and tasks.oThey provide a stable community for practitioners to belong to (as people move across Squads).oThey enable multi-skilling and development of depth and breadth or “T-shaped” capabilities.There are three Disciplines within People Capability:ResponsibilitiesWhat the role requiresSquads are all about communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and striving to improve the team’s velocity with each iteration.
