Abstract:
In the May-June 2006 issue of Defense AT and L, I wrote about the funkified traits of small teams. In particular, I argued that small teams could innovate faster because they were free of the constraint that holds so many organizations backbureaucracy However, being small isnt the only factor that rockets an organization forward. To be smoking-fast, it requires something else diverse and independent thinkers. The trouble with most groups is the propensity to herd.
