| As a team begins to use the <a class="elementLink" |

| Practices</a>, the coach must prepare the team to use the practices effectively. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| This includes the following: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| Teach the team about XP and ensure that the team has a common understanding of the practices. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Facilitate the team's decision as to how aggressively the transition to the new practices will be. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Facilitate a team activity to identify what obstacles they will face in using the practices effectively. Ensure |
| that the team has a plan to overcome those obstacles. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Facilitate a team activity to identify what constraints will require adaptation of the practices. Ensure that these |
| adaptations are understood by the <a class="elementLink" |
| href="./../../xp/guidances/concepts/whole_team,7.89591827591278E-306.html" guid="7.89591827591278E-306">Whole |
| Team</a>. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> |
| Because there are many roles in the team, a coach needs to have a good understanding of the all different activities in |
| the process. In some cases, there might be more than one coach on a team to address needs. There might be a coach for |
| the developer team and one for the customer team, for example. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Use external expertise as necessary to ensure the team starts with a strong base of knowledge on which to succeed. |
