Colocation

Colocation is a technique where a team works together face-to-face in a common space. This space can be physical, but also virtual. The important aspect is that team members can see and speak to one another directly. Colocation increases team productivity since direct communication is the best way to share information. In addition, visibility increases awareness and attention for each other and for the team as a whole. The team should find a balance between communicative collaboration and quiet work.
