It's the teams responsibility to make sure everyone else in the team is okay, encourage the whole team to check-in on each other occasionally, let's bring back those water-cooler moments.
While I'm not sure it's all on the team to make sure folks are okay, I do think it's on teams to check-in with each other. Yes, from a human perspective it's the right thing to do, but also, from a collaboration perspective, it's important to have context on how each other's doing. That understanding will only help relationships, and because of that, help communication and workload and even mood.
Hey Christine, I totally agree it's not all on the team, but it can't all be on the manager, team leam, Scrum Master either. :-)
