Example: Mobile Team Structure

Single team of mixed skills

◦ Business and technology, from requirements development to launch

◦ One leader, empowered to make decisions, but working very closely with Technology Lead

◦ Team size should remain relatively small (no more than 10-15) Technology should understand the business case Business should understand the technology Reduce cost and time by minimizing back-and-forth and the risk of miscommunication Ensure everyone truly understands the goals, context, risks and issues Work as an integrated unit, not distinctly separate teams communicating through

intermediaries Operate within a single governance framework
