# Also Known As

# Context
- A mob is having trouble following up one another's intent
- When typer are having trouble understanding the bigger picture as they're typing.
- A mob wants to maintain alignment on where they're headed

# Purpose
- To resolve confusion and misunderstandings about the intent of the mob, where they are heading and what just happened.


# How To
There are two variations of this pattern:
- *The original*: As the typer finishes their turn of typing, they give a brief summary to the mob about what they just did and why. This is good for helping typers maintain a higher level picture of what is happening as they're typing.
- *The Brightside*: as the talker finish their turn of talking they state to the mob where their intent would go next. This is good for helping new mobs maintain high alignment and psychological safety and reminding the next talker to follow up on the previous talker's intent.

Both versions are good for helping the entire mob keep track of the intent and what just happened.

# Consequences
- Higher alignment on the mob.
- In the case of the *original pattern*, mobbers develop greater psychological safety as the team members need to get used to taking risk and potentially being wrong in front of one another.
- In the *original pattern*, mobbers get used to thinking about the code at multiple levels as they work with it
- In the *Brightside pattern*, mobbers develop greater psychological safety as talkers get used to having their intent followed up on
- In the *Brightside pattern*, new mobs may gain momentum faster as the intent of the last talker doesn't need to be inferred.

# Also Known As

# Context
This is good for any mob, that wants to build a bond and develop respect for eachother's ideas.

# Purpose
To build collaboration and bonding in the mob and reinforce psychological safety and trust. This also increases empathy and understanding of others' points of view.

# How To
Each talker starts their turn by building on the last Talker's ideas, with the phrase "Yes, and...". They avoid words like "But", "No" or "However", as those implicitly criticize the previous talker's ideas and usually signal a deviation from their intent. We always assume the previous navigator has done the best job they could given the information they had.

Whenever the previous talker feels criticized, it can cause defensiveness, and prevent the previous talkers from contributing more to the conversation.

# Consequences
Using Yes, and builds trust and respect with the previous navigator

# Collaborators
