This post shares some of the challenges commonly encountered while managing offshore Agile teams.

Outsourced/offshore co-ordination problems:

• no idea how team on other side is working
• how time is spent by the team
• why it takes 2-3 hrs in doing 15-20 min job
• why the productivity is different
• is the concentration same that side
• is the feeling of belonging to team and motivation same
• how to track work status
• how to work on communication plan
• why expectation of once said and will get done is different
• why the challenges are more in handling offshore
• why it is hard to transfer functional and contextual knowledge
