About three months ago we started arranging our engineering talent at Haventec around a three team principle of personal strengths. Firstly let me say all our engineers are A players. So ability is up there. But people are happiest when they do things they are good at. A persons demeanour and other strengths mean they they will be more happy doing certain things over others. So our Red team does R&D. It can handle fast iterations and can quickly assess, test and dump ideas while trying to break the back of bigger more long shot problems. The Red team must also be able to handle continuous disappointment. Our Blue Team does our production code so attention to detail and quality tenacity are strengths here. Our Green team members are our release code engineers. They are sympathetic customer focussed fixers and refiners. This approach is working well and everyone gets in and helps each other when needed so there are no silo builders at Haventec. Micro pivot However yesterday
