The Lagging Team

Devon Morris

Most teams don't fall behind because people stopped caring. They fall behind because the job changed and the team's operating agreement didn't. The Lagging Team is for leaders whose teams got left behind — by a reorg, a new boss, a technology that rewrote the playbook overnight, or a change nobody explained. Host Dr. Devon Morris is a doctor whose research focuses on teams: goal commitment, learning agility, resilience, and how groups adapt when the ground moves. He's also a Certified Scrum Trainer, Board Certified Coach, and PMP, and he runs 8typical. Tuesdays — conversations with practitioners who were in the room when it happened. Thursdays — short research episodes. One finding, stated plainly, in under twenty minutes. No blame, no jargon, no pretending the team should have known. Just what changed and what to do about it. thelaggingteam.com
