Agile only works when you respect and admire your co-workers enough to lock yourself in a room with them for sixteen hours a day, 6 days a week.
Look around at your team. Do you think they like each other that much. Would they survive as cell mates in a federal penitentiary?
No? Then your plan is doomed. You are operating a death march.
Some have it. Some don't.
I've been on teams where I can say yes, I liked everyone that much. When you ask me to be a fanatic, I'll only be one for the right people. People I adore.
Otherwise? This is a paycheck. Don't get frisky. I'm not zealous about even getting out of bed in the morning.
I disagree you need to like each other. You just need to be professional. Understand that a team is like a distributed system, only that you have meat and neurons instead of boards and circuits. If you can't deal with your technical job, then you're not a fit for it.
