]]> Comment on Rotational Leadership in Agile Teams by james http://ueckerman.net/2009/07/01/rotational-leadership-in-agile-teams/comment-page-1/#comment-125 james Tue, 30 Jun 2009 20:57:26 +0000 http://ueckerman.net/?p=72#comment-125 Matt, An interesting post. I don't favor "individual accountability" but I do like leadership and I think the "flat" structure is not a good one. I also think that a hierarchical structure is problem when that hierarchy is too deep. I think the goal is a good balance where the hierarchical structure gives people a feeling of direction and leadership but also a voice, because they often talk to the "top" persons and feel their voice is being heard personally. So I advocate a hierarchical structure that is "almost" flat, because no decision is a bad decision and because sometimes the decision has to be unpopular for survival and it can't always be the majority consensus - which I think is mediocre at best or what is "comfortable". I guess it depends on what you want out of a company. I want to drive myself forward to learn more things, take on challenges and help others do the same. This can happen with a flat structure but the players have to have each others interests at heart and I think that is typically and more often not the case. Rgs, James. Matt,
