Quarterly Planning: Leverage the INTL Quarterly Planning schedule to organize yourself and your Team. This QP planning calendar will help you plan for the right timeframe to schedule your QP pre-planning meetings. Your Teams QP pre-planning meetings should be scheduled 2 weeks ahead of the QP event. Purpose of the pre-planning sessions is for your PdM to introduce Business Epics & Initiatives planned for the upcoming quarter. Your Sr. Engineers will also introduce Tech-specific work for next quarter. Both PdM & Sr. Engineer is responsible for creating a Confluence page for each Epic, which they will use as basis of their introduction and to capture Open Questions by your Team, Dependencies, etc. Both PdM & Sr. Engineer will link the respective Confluence page for each new Epic to your Teams Quarterly Vision Plans page. The # of pre-planning meetings ahead of the QP event may vary between Teams - SM will ask their own Team to confirm what is needed and what works best for them. Normally, the pre-planning meetings are facilitated during the day, Pacific Time, and thus our India team members are not required to join. These calls can be recorded and shared w/ the entire Team. SM + Team will decide best way to ensure that India Team members are kept well informed of what is being introduced during the Pre-planning meetings. Process Improvement (PI): Ensure a continual process improvement focus exists across the team, supporting an environment of experimentation and new practice trials. Ensure consistency with lulus INTL common practices. Contribute to and lead Process Improvement activities as appropriate. Partner with peer Scrum masters to share and leverage lessons learned, fostering a PI culture at all times. Facilitate team assessments, against the common practice frameworks in use for INTL.

Identify and address with individuals or the group those behaviors that run counter to positive team culture. Maintain regular 1:1 contact with each team member.
