Define: Self-Organizing Team

“The best architectures, requirements, and designs
emerge from self-organizing teams.”

The Agile Manifesto for Software Development

A self-organizing team is a group of individuals who work together towards a common goal or objective, without explicit direction or control from a single leader or manager. Instead, the team members are empowered to make their own decisions, assign tasks, and collaborate to achieve their goals.

In a self-organizing team, each member has a defined role, and the team collectively decides how to best use their skills and resources to achieve the desired outcomes. This approach allows for more flexibility and adaptability in the face of changing circumstances, as the team can quickly adjust its strategies and actions as needed.

Self-organizing teams are often used in Agile methodologies [frameworks] such as Scrum, where they are seen as a key factor in promoting collaboration, creativity, and innovation. By giving team members the freedom to organize and manage their work, they are more likely to take ownership of their tasks and feel a sense of responsibility for the success of the team as a whole.
