Christoph Schmiedinger gave a presentation at the Business Agility Conference in Vienna on May 21st, 2019 about how borisgloger consulting GmbH transitioned from randomly assigning employees to projects to forming business-centered teams. The company grew rapidly between 2013 and 2014 which led them to realize they needed a more structured approach to team formation. In late 2014, they started assigning employees to teams based on their business expertise rather than at random. This transition helped them better serve their clients and improve internal collaboration, but also presented organizational growing pains. Through trial and error, they identified leadership, communication, and focus on outcomes as key factors for success.
