To foster ownership in a development team and ensure accountability, it is important to provide the context and explain the purpose behind a feature.
Sharing insights and data that demonstrate the business need can help developers understand the urgency and take responsibility for timely delivery.
Assigning the feature to a team member and actively supporting them, as well as giving them visibility and recognition, can foster a sense of ownership and pride in their work.
Creating an environment where open discussions are encouraged, even around controversial decisions, empowers individuals to take ownership of their work and fosters real accountability.
