Team Based Delivery

As a company grows so does its structure. As a small company with under 30 employees it was very easy to segment staff into functional units or practice groups. The company was small enough that everyone worked together to accomplish the end goal. Around 40 employees communication starts to suffer and the "team" starts to experiance bad exchanges. I have found that orginizing your staff into delivery teams (with representation from each practice group) provides a greate foundation for client delivery. Not only is communication better, but end goals are aligned. This can extend to include team based incentive and bonus programs.
