Agile Case Studies - Balancing Anarchy and Co-op with Scrum
If everybody on a 100-person project should talk to everybody else, we'd
have to work overtime just to cover the meetings. Of course, this is
before we start making any progress. Less meetings mean more progress.
At the same time, everybody works towards the same goal. If we don't
talk to each other, we will run in separate directions.
In this talk, recorded at Øredev 2009, Johannes Brodwall uses his experience as architect for 1/4 of a large
project to address the balance between coordination and progress.
