THE PITCH / 001

Your sprint starts now.

In the grand tradition of workplace disasters, success is somebody else's problem. Until it isn't.

01

Recruit your crew.

Build a team of developers, QA specialists and senior engineers. More capacity means more work done—ideally.

02

Deliver the work.

Race rival teams to finish shared work packages and turn progress into money.

03

Embrace the chaos.

Use power cards, caffeine and opportunistic decisions to gain the upper hand.

Made with affection
