Open to suggestions to improve the wording for this example. What I'm trying to say in only 1 short sentence is:
Put in place a system to have a global engineering team, with people working from all over the world.

Too much structure and process can slow a team down, but too little can also be debilitating. As an organisation, we need to be continually focusing on how the team is executing, finding ways to do things faster and better, and ensuring that the appropriate systems are in place to foster a diverse and inclusive team.

The first sentence sounds a bit opinionated. I would remove it. Like an Agile coach friend of mine would say, not having "process" is a process in itself.
This track is talking about continuous improvement. Maybe we can insert that into the second sentence. Could be something like:
"As an organisation, we need to foster a culture of continuous improvement, looking for ways to do things better and more efficiently, and creating appropriate systems to promote healthy, diverse and inclusive teams."
