The 10 Fuck-ups of Team Collaboration
summary
Explains why team collaboration breaks down when people ignore time and channel choices, giving examples like wasted platform decisions (Nokia/Meego vs Android). Recommends concrete practices: use an explicit synchronous/asynchronous matrix, adopt 90‑minute focus cycles (about three deep blocks per day), replace folders with search, introduce simple interrupt controls (e.g., a one‑euro jar), and roll out sensible tool mixes (Slack/WhatsApp/Google/Office365) with documented rules and measurement.
