IMPORTANT
co-located teams
physical co location
all team members work in the same space within 33 feet (10 meters) of each other, with no physical barriers between them.
agile also talks about virtual co location of teams
team space big space with a lot of wall for whiteboards sticky notes video conferencing no barriers for f2f communication food snacks and joy
caves
private spaces for quiet work
osmotic communication
amount of useful info that flows in the team
quick info exchange is very useful and one of the main reasons for co located teams > make them sit together, they will talk
global cultural and team diversity pose special challenges - different time zones - different cultures - different communication styles - different native languages
it is best to start at one location and then change to the different sites > kickoff on 1 site
distributed teams
- at least one team member working offsite
this is not the same as outsourcing, as this involves other legal entities
