Everyone loves to talk about empowered, self-organizing teams — but most so-called “autonomous” teams are trapped in invisible structures, hidden dependencies, and unclear mandates. This post uncovers why real autonomy is so rare and what it actually takes to achieve it.
Clarity of roles is what makes the What-How separation work. In this post, we explore which roles own the what, which own the how, and which bridge the gap. By defining ownership clearly, teams can reduce conflict, avoid blurred accountability, and deliver value faster.
