7. Improvise to get somewhere

8. All you need is a personal touch Respect Start with educating the team Use video conferences Provide live streaming You are not “just working here” Share more about yourself

9. Take no chances Hire good people Share same time-zone Suggest “Deputy Scrum Master” Never let loose Personal contact

10. There is a lot what you can do Daily stand-ups in 15 minutes Shared backlog Velocity as with collocated teams Feel as a single team, feel the common purpose

11. And is still a price to pay Short iterations One product at a time / pair programming Limiting work in progress Cultural similarities vs. differences Inertia Shared information field
