Oh and on one more thing I hadn’t addressed. I’ve seen teams try to “swarm” on a problem, with varying levels of success. It’s easy to be cynical and draw allegories to storming a trench. If we just all run together, maybe one of us will make it to the other side… Sometimes this comes from a place of wanting to improve the bus factor, or minimise siloing. The truth is that it’s hard to bake in this level of redundancy, and still be effective, without rigorous and brittle process, or without genuinely motivated team members who trust and appreciate each other, who are invested in each other’s success. Either way it takes a lot of time, and a lot of training and personal growth for the team members involved.
