About Dynamic Reteaming: The Art And Wisdom Of Changing

Product Description Your team will change whether you like it or not. People will come and go. Your company might double in size or even be acquired. In this practical book, author Heidi Helfand shares techniques for reteaming effectively. Engineering leaders will learn how to catalyze team change to reduce the risk of attrition, learning and career stagnation, and the development of knowledge silos. Based on research into well-known software companies, the patterns in this book help CTOs and team managers effectively integrate new hires into an existing team, manage a team that has lost members, or deal with unexpected change. You’ll learn how to isolate teams for focused innovation, rotate team members for knowledge sharing, break through organizational apathy, and more. You’ll explore: Real-world examples that demonstrate why and how organizations reteam Five reteaming patterns: One by One, Grow and Split, Isolation, Merging, and Switching Tactics to help you master dynamic reteaming in your company Stories that demonstrate problems caused by reteaming anti-patterns Review Heidi's wisdom will change how you think about, form, re-form, and participate in teams. Her stories, whether from the three successful startups she's guided through hypergrowth or the dozens of teams she's interviewed across the globe, delineate the power, intelligence, and joy of reteaming. If you seek a healthier, happier, more harmonious approach to teaming, study this book. --Joshua Kerievsky, Industrial Logic, author of Refactoring to Patterns I used to think, in fact I was certain, that long-lived teams with very stable membership were the best way for software development organizations to deliver fantastic software. Heidi and her book encouraged me to challenge and reevaluate this notion. She explains the many perspectives, virtues, and advantages of deliberately and thoughtfully changing up teams. This book is a must for software development leaders looking to create a development culture of engagement, connectedness, resilience, and opportunity. --Chris Smith, head of product delivery at Redgate Software For most of us, our image of teamwork needs to be updated--the stable, familiar groups of people who learn how to work together well are being replaced by fluid, porous teams that have to work together in new ways. Helfand provides inspiration and practical insights for how to do this well. --Amy C. Edmondson, Harvard Business School, author of Teaming and The Fearless Organization Building effective teams is hard. A good team is a dynamic thing that changes all of the time. Understanding this and using it to help to guide your team is a cornerstone of any approach to continuous improvement. Heidi's book describes powerful, real-world patterns based on her extensive experience that will help you to reflect on what is happening in your team and give you a guide for what to do next. --Dave Farley, coauthor of Continuous Delivery High-performing teams are simultaneously powerful and fragile. Changes to the team can quickly disrupt their flow, but can also bring new insights and better ways of working in the long run. Dynamic Reteaming is a fundamental book for anyone involved in the fine art of balancing team evolution with team health in the real world. The author's immense experience is in full display here, backed by meaningful examples and concrete patterns. --Manuel Pais, coauthor of Team Topologies: Organizing Business and Technology Teams for Fast Flow Like it or not, knowledge work is a team sport. The essence of being a professional knowledge worker, then, is the ability to be a good team player. But how does one engage on a team when teams today are undergoing constant change? Isn't "change" the opposite of "team"? The established Agile paradigm is to try and stabilize teams as much as possible, but this advice flies in the face of the reality that most of us experience. That's where Heidi comes in. Rather than to resist te
