The Scaling Trap: Why your next hire might be slowing you down
The Scaling Trap: Why your next hire might be slowing you down
Join the Tech Execs Focus Group with Robert Batůšek, Consultant & agile coach.
Most teams hit the same wall: you add people to move faster and suddenly everything takes longer. Why is that? In this Circle, we’ll unpack three patterns behind that slowdown and practical ways to redesign teams for speed again:
The Coordination tax: why doubling headcount can triple the time spent on alignment, handoffs, and sync
The rise of the “Single-Pizza” team: moving beyond Amazon’s Two-Pizza rule. With AI-augmented tooling, ultra-lean teams can deliver results of whole departments.
Ending the dependency cycle: how to move away from internal silos that create bottlenecks and waiting time toward end-to-end teams that can ship much faster
Circle is a small group of peers. Space to go deep, ask real questions, and share what actually works (and what doesn’t). The session focuses on a challenge most scaling teams face: you add people to move faster and everything slows down. We’ll explore why that happens and discuss practical ways to redesign teams for real speed, shaped by real cases and challenges from the room.
Circle:
- a small group of peers
- no presentations, no sales
- space to go deep, ask questions, and share what actually works (and what doesn’t)
