In this web content, the author recounts their experience working on a development team that had organizational issues. They were tasked with developing a new product that had the potential for patentable ideas. However, when the patent attorney approached them for ideas, they realized that their team was only responsible for implementing features invented by others and had no input on the design. The author also shares their frustrations with a separate UX design team that took over the interface design without involving the development team. This led to a lack of collaboration and a breakdown in trust within the organization. Ultimately, a reorganization disbanded the separate teams and led to improvements. The author emphasizes the importance of collaborative work and the negative consequences of organizational silos.
