The new team must decide how it will make decisions on various scenarios. It will do this by assigning each scenario to either stage 1 or stage 2 and choosing a decision making method for each stage. Stage 1 will use consensus and stage 2 will use delegation. The scenarios cover topics like retro topics, sprint planning, estimations, and technical decisions.
