“At places where engineers aren’t in
charge, it feels like they just blindly
apply the bog-standard operating
procedures of the industry: working
agile, doing sprints, etc.”

“The objectivity of a data-driven
approach means that it can lead
insights that drive success without any
restricting factors or pre-conceptions…
a robust, replicable process rather than
personal opinion or convenience.”

Definitions of conceptual models of team-working
Multidisciplinary teams
Members may have separate
but interrelated roles and
maintain their own
disciplinary boundaries.
Additive, not integrative.
Interdisciplinary teams
Members may blur some
disciplinary boundaries but
still maintain a discipline-
speci
fi
c base.
Teams integrate closer to
complete a shared goal.
Transdisciplinary teams
Team members share roles
as well as goals. They share
skills (allowing others to
learn and take on skills) as
well as acquire new skills.
The result is a more blended
team that shares objectives
and many core skill sets
required to achieve the
overall goal.
