# Overview

Multidisciplinary team collaboration is essential in Agile. Therefore, meetings and Agile techniques are aimed at stimulating collaboration and delivering work items as a team.

## Kickoff

  The whole team is present during an iteration’s kickoff. This ensures that everyone starts with the same view of what should be included in the iteration.

## Daily stand-up meeting
  
Every day, there will be a short meeting where everyone on the team briefly describes what they did the day before, what they plan to do today, what impediments they expect to encounter, and who they may need help from to tackle these.

Get an overview of different techniques of meetings and working together.
