 When people share what they do in an open / transparent
way, everyone can see results of the work quickly and solve
problems quickly.

 All communication within the agile team must be
addressed to the complete team, including sharing any
documents, release plans or schedules, review requests
and feedback, risks or concerns, and even leave updates.

This builds a complete sense of oneness within the team

and maintains complete transparency at all times.
