Cruising

Part of the Team Morale Check

What is Cruising?

The team is moving but without much push. Deadlines are met, but ambition and urgency have dropped. Comfortable but potentially stagnating.

When you might feel cruising

Cruising is a specific form of coasting, which itself is a type of content. You might experience this feeling in situations where content is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define cruising.
