Once, after Seattle Lean Coffee, I had a conversation with a fellow participant about how my team started pair programming. First, I admitted that my entire team doesn’t pair program. My small teams (or pods, as we call them) self organize and function along team agreements they take part in making. But, if I thought it would be advantageous for my teams to attempt pair programming, there are ways that I could communicate and work with them to get them to try it out.
