Selected Answer: C
The answer is C. Training in areas of weakness . Here's why: Velocity is about efficiency and effectiveness: Team velocity measures how much work a team can complete in a given sprint. To increase velocity, you need to improve the team's ability to deliver value. Training addresses root causes: Training in areas of weakness directly tackles the root causes of slowdowns. For example, if a team struggles with testing, training in testing techniques can significantly improve their ability to deliver high-quality work.

Other options are important but less direct: A. Daily standups: Daily standups are essential for communication and coordination, but they don't directly address skill gaps. B. Iteration and release planning: Planning is crucial for setting goals and prioritizing work, but it doesn't improve the team's ability to execute. D. Iteration retrospectives: Retrospectives are valuable for identifying areas for improvement, but they don't provide the specific skills needed to address those areas.

Selected Answer: C
C = correct "Training in areas of weakness" is indeed a common practice within Agile methodologies, particularly in Scrum. In the Scrum framework, the concept of continuous improvement and self-organizing teams is highly emphasized. One of the key principles is that teams should actively work on enhancing their skills and addressing areas of weakness to deliver higher quality and value. The practice of "Training in areas of weakness" aligns with the Agile value of "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools" and the Agile principle of "The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams." It promotes the idea that teams should be empowered to identify their own weaknesses, seek relevant training, and continually improve their capabilities.
