"Teams are becoming a basic building block for many contemporary business organizations, with one survey finding 68 percent of Fortune 1000 companies using self-managing teams"
- Lawler, Mohrman & Ledford
Our world is getting more complex every day, and change is the only stable factor. It is impossible to solve the problems as an individual. Teams are required to deal with the problems we have to solve. This could be developing new products, serving customers, research new tools, etc.
We all probably worked in a great team once. At that moment we maybe did not realize it but when working in other teams we realized how great that one team was. Great teams don’t just happen. There are many models that can help you to build great teams, and still no guarantee!
In this talk, I address several things that are important related to great teams.
To start with, what is a team? I first want to create a common understanding to make sure everyone has the same view on a team. Just having six people in a room, doesn’t mean they are a team.
Should there be a maximum of six people in a team? Or is it 15 like Dave Snowden writes? Or should it as it is described in the Scrum Guide? We will look at different models and make a conclusion about the optimal team size.
One of the most important characteristics of a team is diversity. Many people think about gender when they talk about diversity. Diversity is much more, in this talk I will describe what makes up team diversity. Diversity has advantages. However, I will also address the disadvantages of diversity in this talk. I will share and exercise that teams can use to calculate their diversity score and help them to increase diversity.
Many organizations and people performed research about what makes great teams. For example, Patrick Lencioni (Five dysfunctions of a team) Google (Project Aristotle) and the Rocket Model. All this research has value, and there is also overlap. I studied different models and combined them into one. Great teams have conflicts, clarity in the team, trust in each other, understand the impact, are Reliable to each other and care about results. I will dive into these six topics and give examples, as also tools and practices to improve the topics.
I will close the talk with the Team Decision Matrix. More and more teams are expected to be self-organizing and are empowered by management to make decisions. However, management would like to know how they make decisions, and the team is often wondering how to make decisions. The Team Decision Matrix describes five approaches to decision making. I will share those approaches with the audience, and also show how they can use this to coach their team to provide clarity in decision making.

Many people talk about Agile management, self-organizing teams, organizations without managers, but do they really exist?
Yes, they do! I am the CEO of Happy Melly One, and I have nothing to say about the company. I am just one of the team

In this talk, I will share how we decide on salaries, how we decide on who is going to do what, how we define our bonuses, how do we hire and fire people. All the things that are taken care of by managers in many organizations.
The take away will be to realize it is possible to have an organization without managers!

I don't want to implement the Spotify-model!

Beginner
Spotify is cool. In the last month I heard three organizations saying they want to implement or copy the Spotify-model and I know some organizations are working on implementing it as we speak. But is this really a good idea?
I will explain why in general I don't want to implement a success model from another company using guidelines to deal with complexity. There are eight guidelines that you can use to deal with complexity. Three of them make it clear why you can't just copy a model from another organization. I will talk about those three guidelines and explain them.
