We should teach people early on how to collaborate with others in a team atmosphere. It’s hard to get code into production on your own, and once it’s in production it’s not your code anymore, it’s everyone’s. Everyone should have a say.

@Nanos I consider myself to be a great dictator.

@Nanos that’s a very complicated answer. There are tons of factors that influence how a team can be successful together.

@Nanos it should be a topic of the week on devRants. I would love to discuss it in more detail.

The most important thing imo is that the person organizing the team is responsible for the team working well with each other, whether it’s a random manager or a CEO. They need to facilitate communication between the team members, do activities to build he team’s trust between the members, squash issues when they pop up, etc.

The core of any successful team is a foundation of trust! It’s a very valuable thing to have, and teams with no trust end up having other problems like finger pointing and cover-your-ass syndrome.

So much more to talk about and no room!
