"To be successful, heavyweight teams should be co-located." #readingToday
To be successful, heavyweight teams should be co-located. Team members bring their functional expertise to the group, but they do not represent their functional group's "interests" on the team. Their responsibilities are simply to do what needs to be done in order for the project to be successful— even if that course of action is not optimal for their functional group.
