We made it to the top of the Agile self-actualization pyramid!
Teams who are psychologically safe service leaders acting self-organized in their work can continuously improve and deliver iterative value to the world.
They provide space for experimentation and learning.
They give a voice to all team members and provide room for full ownership all around.
They transfer the power to those in the room who are less experienced so that there are more learning opportunities.
They are always looking for opportunities to fail fast and improve their work.
When Agile teams build their self-actualization pyramid, they can truly Perform.
They must do it together. No one single person is responsible for an Agile team's success. No one is "in charge", making all decisions for others. It requires the consensus of many diverse perspectives of people in service to each others' growth.
Value comes when they solve problems for users and for clients. Nothing is ever finished, only progressed. As teams build they get feedback. As they deliver they get feedback. They adjust their plans and respond to change. They collaborate with each other and build working results.
Over time, the value they deliver in the world builds on itself.
They may never get to the MMP because they need to pivot. But whatever happens, their progression is the most valuable thing for the product or service they are building. They are able to validate the risks and produce user-centered value through Agile conventions of work.
In the next lesson, learn what it's like in daily work on self-actualized Agile teams.
