Session at South FL's first agile conference where we talked about the 5 sources of conflict and various tools to help your team navigate it for better collaboration
5. Purpose today is to…
• Better understand the relationship
between Conflict & Collaboration
• Give you and your teams several
tools to navigate through conflict

Do some of your team results look like this? Do you find that sometimes teams implode due to “unexplainable” circumstances? This is a photo from the results of a hurricane that struck Galveston, TX in 1900. In these days, hurricanes were equally unexplainable. You could only clean up the damage afterwards.
These days, we track and model the behavior of these “storms”. Can we do the same for the difficulties with teams?
Let’s discuss the relationship between conflict and collaboration
We’ve had several conversations on this and our point of view is…
But in order to go from Storming to Norming and then Performing, the teams must have constructive conflict
Jean introduced me to another interesting book on conflict and shared some of her insights on how facilitation can be used.
Let’s review
Values – PRIORITIES, GROUPING, Working Agreements about no judgments. With ANY of these, OPEN DIALOGUE is your least useful facilitation approach. With the STORMING of conflict, you must be a very engaged facilitator using processes to help the individuals in the group navigate both the sources of conflict and their conflict styles.
Many people start their agile journey learning about the values and principles of the Agile Manifesto
Different agile/lean methodologies talk about different values and principles. These help guide teams and organizations on what to change and when.But do they stick? Do teams and organizations really embrace them?
Better to find out what you value first
What is truly key to a high performing team is (1) elevated shared purpose, (2) understanding the collective values of the team (3) working agreements on preferences (that reflect values)
As the team “gels”, individuals then go through a different types of focus (1) What’s in it for me (WIIFMe), (2) What’s in it for us as a team (WIIFUs) and only truly successful teams get to the third stage of (3) What’s in it for others (WIIFOthers) to have this team exist? WIIFOthers is the team emphathizing with Elevating Purpose that brought the team together. They are now driven by that purpose. You absolutely need conflict to have teams evolve into successful teams. It’s the “storming” part of the Tuckman model. Teams have to pass through this.
It starts with making the collective values visible and developing working agreements from these values for where the team is now.
It starts with making the collective values visible and developing working agreements from these values for where the team is now.
So let me do a VERY QUICK WALK THROUGH of one exercise to map your values. It’s called the Mountains and Valleys exercise from the book Tribal Leadership. Lyssa Adkins describes a similar exercise called “Journey lines” in her book Coaching Agile Teams. Mountains and Valleys goes a bit further. There are many other ways to do this, but I find this one very straightforward for most people.
Consider a timeline of your life. The vertical access would measure how satisfied you were with certain events in your life.
Next, think of a few key MILESTONE events in your life that were extremely low satisfaction, devastating or even tragic FOR YOU.Place a point on the Timeline representing each event. The “depth” represents how dissatisfying or tragic the event was.
Then you want to label each event.
For the negative events, what was missing the most? Again, try to use phrases instead of single words.
For the negative events, what was missing the most? Again, try to use phrases instead of single words.
You may even want to sit with someone you trust and have them ask open powerful questions as to what was going on. 5 Whys can work here as well. You will likely come up with more values for each event. Then try to identify what patterns you are seeing across the different events.
Looking at the patterns, try to put a name to each pattern. These are your core values starting to emerge. You may want to revisit these in a few days or a couple of weeks. You could end up uncovering more.
Looking at the patterns, try to put a name to each pattern. These are your core values starting to emerge. You may want to revisit these in a few days or a couple of weeks. You could end up uncovering more.
People will still blow up at times. Maybe even you will. You have to show it’s ok to “fail” and that it’s an opportunity to learn. In the Responsibility Process, Christopher Avery describes how “lay blame”, “justify”, “shame”, “obligation” and “quit” are all natural responses, but none of them allow us to learn what is truly going on. They are coping mechanisms. Only until we recognize these states and give them up do we finally see true options to solve the problem.
