  16. Agile Bible, Verse 5:

    “Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.”

    What exactly are you doing to ensure every individual has the environment and support to deliver their unique value and impact?
    (Spoiler: The value and impact is not equal to your role. Shocking, I know.)
