A must-read for team players, team leaders, and aspiring leaders. - Changpeng Zhao
When cognitive load isn’t considered, teams are spread thin trying to cover an excessive amount of responsibilities and domains. Such a team lacks bandwidth to pursue mastery of their trade and struggles with the costs of switching contexts.
— Matthew Skelton, Team Topologies
