Summary
In small to medium-sized digital companies, pool structures quickly emerge in the interaction between consulting, project management, UX/UI design and development. The consequences: unclear responsibilities and inefficient processes. This is where the switch to agile teams can help. In issue 79 of t3n magazine, we provide an insight and describe the opportunities and benefits of agile team organisation in real life. 

In small companies in particular, the challenge often lies in creating clear responsibilities, structures and processes without losing flexibility and dynamism. This is where new structures in combination with agile methods can help. One step in this direction is the establishment of cross-functional teams that work independently and self-organised with customers and products. 

 

 

Cross-functional teams are the key:
We rely on agile, cross-functional teams that combine various disciplines such as strategic consulting, project management, UX/UI design and development. This structure ensures that all relevant skills are directly available in the team and dependencies are minimised.

 

 

Clear processes create efficiency:
An agile framework with defined processes such as Scrum or Kanban helps us to work efficiently and flexibly. Clear role allocations and standardised processes enable our teams to act independently.

Focus on employee development:
The exchange of knowledge and regular further training not only promote professional expertise, but also strengthen the motivation and personal responsibility of team members.

 

Customer proximity as a success factor:
Agile teams enable us to react more flexibly and quickly to customer requirements. A clear product and customer affiliation ensures a better understanding of needs and creates trust.

Conclusion: More flexibility and efficiency
Although the switch to agile teams requires a great deal of commitment and a willingness to change, it creates the basis for sustainable success. We have seen how clear structures and trusting collaboration increase efficiency and boost the satisfaction of our customers and employees.
