Our Ideology as we Build, Create, and Innovate

- We only work on the most important things at any given point in time
- We then break those things into the smaller manageable tasks for individuals to work on autonomously
- Individual's strong suits are considered in assigning tasks and accomplishing the collective team goal
- Every morning the team recaps progress and blocking points for about 10-20 minutes, directed by the team lead
- Communication is the upmost of importance, are you comfortable asking for help, and open to accepting constructive feedback?
- Formally and collectively understand once a MVP sprint has been completed, to reevaluate the next set of priorities. Sometimes as frequently as weekly.
