Process
As your team grows, the need for defined processes increase.
The immediate push back often sounds like, “adding in process hampers my ability to be agile.”
The implementation of process is only one aspect of the word that is needed.
The other aspect of process which is needed exists in having the space to process.
Process is a thing, but processing is an important cognitive function.
Often your best times for processing occur away from the task at hand which needs processing.
Therefore, the need for defined processes as your team grows is about more than clear pass-offs and methods for working.
Defined process, when well-designed, increases your team’s capacity to process.
If you are looking to bring more thoughtfulness to your organization, process (both types!) can help.
