In an ideal world, everyone on an Agile team is in the same physical location, fostering cooperation and collaboration all throughout the team’s growth. Unfortunately the real world doesn’t always work that way.

Our objective is to highlight successful patterns that we have noticed that significantly helped in making these distributed teams thrive.
