Great agile teams are built on the backs of creative employees. These folks think outside of the box and understand that they need to balance between risk and rigor. Through repeated research and iteration, they also know that they can continuously learn and get closer to the truth. The right team members should be ready to brainstorm scrappy approaches to test ideas day in and day out.
