What's wrong with collaboratively working together? Why is there a need to create an atificial competition between a "offence" and a "defence" team?
And why should team members be collaborative amongst their team? E.g. why should the "offence" team members suddenly help each other if it's not happening generally?
This sounds a lot like JDD - Jock Driven Development.
Perhaps the underlying problems of "don't touch it because we don't understand it" should be solved before engaging in fake competition to increase the stress levels.
- megunderstood 2y agoSounds like you didn't read the article. The idea has nothing to do with creating artificial competition and it is actually designed as a form of collaboration. Some work requires concentration and the defensive team is there to maintain the conditions for this concentration, i.e. prevent the offensive team from getting interrupted.

- Kinrany 2y agoIt's a common and pervasive mistake to assume the meaning of a term by association with the words used in the term. Names of terms are at best mnemonics.
