> Put bluntly, does Conway's Law give me anything actionable to consider when I'm building an engineering org? Because your architecture will match your communications structure, it means that if you want your system to work a certain way, you’ll want to make your org chart match it. If the system architecture is the thing you want, and the org chart is what you can control, it follows that you should mold your organization to match your desired architecture. Conway’s law is a law, not an anti-pattern. Resisting it is a bad idea, instead learn and understand it, and plan around it.
