Regular Team Syncs can also help, but not sure if they’re enough.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by this one. Enforcing work-in-process limits doesn't seem directly related to addressing fear of conflict. I'll have to think this through more carefully.

Wait, there's no option for 'Hire a professional stand-up comedian to entertain the team'? That's where I was going with this.
