1. Description of the challenge

How can communication flows within the teams be improved, ensuring teams are informed about the essential matters without being overwhelmed by unnecessary information?

Communication within IT/Scrum teams: How to ensure optimal communication?

"Communication = key," a frequently mentioned term that sometimes seems challenging to achieve. The larger the groups, the more noise is generated, and especially the more difficult it becomes to maintain well-streamlined communication among them.

Within the Mandemakers Group, over 50 colleagues from various teams are involved in ICT and digitization. The different software systems falling under the Mandemakers Group are placed in different teams, each with its own approach. The teams are strongly interconnected, as these systems need to collaborate. Maintenance or changes in one of the software systems directly affect the rest of the teams. Additionally, one of the teams consists of various sub-teams, making communication flows more complex.
