A New Way of working

Just had a team meeting with the technical team at work. There is going to be a new way of working implemented. Its known as XP which is short for extreme programming. It will be used to counteract people within the company becoming expert in only one particular field or having knowledge that is self contained to that individual only.

A three month shuffle will be implemented to give the techincal team opportunity in working in areas they normally would not work in.

In essence people will work in pairs and its assumed this will increase productivity with tasks set up into small components or iterations where delivery times can be deemed to be succinct and precise.

It all sounds good in theory time will tell if this will work, lets wait and see ?
