And last week, I was lucky enough to watch how they do this at their 5th program increment planning (dubbed “PI5”). Here’s how it worked.

And over time, a disconnected feeling grows and it affects culture. So, if you can’t be together, you’ve got to replace that feeling of being together. A great way to do this is with group chat, because it encourages communication. And company culture is rooted in the ways teammates and coworkers communicate.

Those little icons are basically the only way you can discern anything as you drown in a browser tab sea of your own making.
