📚 The word ‘microteam’ is dropped into chapter 3 of Team Topologies like it is a common, well-understood term. Given the size and shape of our IT department I am intrigued by the concept but couldn’t find much out there that talks to this.

@adoran2 It just sounds like they are talking about smaller teams, each with a tighter product focus. There’s a lot about teaming in agile and lean literature, and about product focus, but I’ve never specifically heard the term “microteam” before.
@hbowie Yeah, me neither. The term caught my eye as it speaks to me in terms of forming a small team (of two or three people, I assume) to get a specific thing done, but I can’t find much out there on it.
@adoran2 I emailed the authors about it and got this response (don’t you just love the Internet!):
@adoran2 Good to know! Thanks for sharing!
