Our golden
rules for tribe
organization
1 - Our squads are defined by the impact
they should have on their users, not by
functional ownership
2 - Squad scopes should be aligned with
value vehicles (as much as possible) to
minimize dependencies
2 - Defining the tribe’s organization
3 - Squad objectives should clearly relate
to the Tribe’s north star

Our golden
rules for tribe
strategy
1 - The tribe strategy has to be built
collaboratively with all squad leaders
2 - The goal is to create alignment and
provide context, NOT agree on a schedule
to deliver features
2 - Defining the tribe’s strategy
“Strategy is about creating a framework for all team
members to make the right decisions at every level”

👌 The head of product is in charge of defining actionable objectives
for their tribe, aligned with company OKRs
👌 Squad scopes are siloed by value vehicle in order to maximize
impact and minimize dependencies
👌 “Strategy” at tribe level is about creating coherence between
squads and giving them enough context so they can take the right
decisions at their own level
