By starting with the customer experience and working backward, you shift from just completing tasks to delivering real value. Standups become less about updates and more about how you’re helping real people. Try running a "Working Backwards" sprint and see how it changes your team’s focus.

By regularly using the "Working Backwards" method, your agile team will not just build features; they will build solutions with a clear, shared understanding of what the customer wants.

Adopting this customer-focused mindset will not only reconnect your team to the end-user’s needs but also enable them to actively deliver real value and improve with purpose. Share your experiences if you try this in your next work cycle.
