An agile tribe structure
An agile tribestructure is the sweet spot between making teams autonomous while still
enabling the sharing of knowledge between people even if they are not working
together on a daily basis.People do not havefixed roles, they can grow and change role very easily.
ragraph text here.The Business Elements Reply team is organised around work in Squads, Tribes and Chapters.
SQUADS
Each Squad is cross-functional and autonomous team focused on a project that guides the work they do, an agile coach (Squad Lead) for support and a product owner for guidance.
TRIBES
When multiple Squads coordinate within each other on the same subject, they form a Tribe. Tribes ensure alignment across Squads and cross-pollinate knowledge.
Each Tribe has a Tribe Lead who is responsible for helping coordinate across Squads and for encouraging collaboration.
CHAPTERS
Even though Squads are autonomous, it’s important that specialists align on best practices. Chapters are the family that each specialist has, helping to keep engineering standards in place across a discipline.
