In Uberflow, the focus is on facilitating team collaboration and trust rather than enforcing control or micro-managing the team. Here are some ways to ensure that the project is progressing without resorting to strict control measures:

1. Trust and Autonomy: In Uberflow, the team is trusted and empowered to make decisions and manage their tasks. Trust and autonomy are crucial for fostering motivation and productivity. When individuals feel trusted and valued, they are likely to take more ownership of their work and be more committed to the project's success.

2. Regular Sync-ups: As mentioned before, regular sync-ups allow the team to stay updated on the project's progress, discuss any blockers, and plan next steps. This isn't a "reporting" session but a collaborative meeting where everyone shares updates and insights. The focus is on collaboration, learning, and problem-solving, not on reporting or control.

3. Project Management Tools: Modern project management tools can provide visibility into the project's progress without requiring strict reporting or control. Tools can track tasks, deadlines, dependencies, and milestones, providing a clear view of the project's status. Everyone in the team has access to the tool and can update their tasks as they progress.

4. Feedback Loops with Stakeholders: Regular customer feedback sessions ensure that the product is aligning with the customer's needs. This can also provide stakeholders with reassurances about the progress of the project. Additionally, stakeholders can be involved in key ceremonies such as the Kick-off Meeting and Project Navigation Reviews to ensure transparency and alignment.

5. Metrics and KPIs: Rather than focusing on individual productivity metrics, Uberflow could emphasize metrics that reflect the team's overall performance and the value delivered to the customer. These could include metrics related to product quality, customer satisfaction, and team happiness. These metrics provide a measure of the project's progress without resorting to strict control or reporting.

6. Open Communication: Uberflow encourages open dialogue and transparency. If anyone in the team or the stakeholders has concerns about the progress, they are encouraged to openly discuss it. The Project Navigator can facilitate these discussions and help address any concerns.

In essence, Uberflow ensures progress not by enforcing control but by promoting trust, transparency, and collaboration, facilitated by modern tooling and open communication.
