Also:<p><pre><code>  - Be explicit about your expectations for each of the team members. This is a
    discussion, not a declaration.

  - Give feedback early and often, both constructive and kudos.

  - Your first priority is the productivity of your team, not your individual
    productivity. This means taking the time to help team members that are
    struggling, even at the expense of closing out your own stories on time.

  - Don&#x27;t be afraid to be vulnerable, admit your own failings or tell your team
    that you don&#x27;t know. Allowing your team to see the decision making process
    when you go through it can be very valuable and is much better than just being
    the guy who has an answer to everything. As a plus, showing your own
    vulnerability will lead to your team showing their vulnerability more readily.

  - Even if you&#x27;ve got the answer, sometimes it makes sense to let your team make
    the decision. There are often many right answers. Remember, your job isn&#x27;t to
    choose a right answer, it&#x27;s to ensure that the team doesn&#x27;t choose a wrong
    answer.</code></pre>
