Most of the hardware teams I've worked with (inside an organization and as a consultant) have fewer people. Feedback Loops Drive Collaboration. And, because they can demo each feature, they might need to reconnect every day if the story/feature takes longer than one day. See Team Size Matters, Reprise.). And, with whom?

Strategy and Product Feedback Loops About 20 years ago, I taught a project management workshop to IT people. ” For years, I explained that the more often the team or program could demo, the more the project or program could engage its stakeholders.

” It depends on how your lifecycle manages feedback loops and learning, how collaborative the team is, and how much WIP the team has. Each Lifecycle Manages Feedback Loops Differently Brooks wrote the original version of The Mythical Man-Month in 1975, based on the 1960s IBM 360 project. .”

Of course, there are feedback loops here, too: Notice that we expect feedback from later features back to the previous features. However, if we have “bad” feedback from the last (or interim feature), we don't have the “Kiss of Death” as we did in the serial or iterative lifecycles.
