Behaviorally Speaking - SCM Essentials for Small Teams  November 16, 2010

By Bob Aiello

CM Crossroads

Does size really matter? Small Teams do, in fact, operate differently than larger teams and they require a very different level of process. I have implemented enterprise wide software configuration management solutions that impacted hundreds of developers located all over the world. It is tempting to think of a big team as being a collection of small teams and sometimes that's true. Most often though small teams have unique requirements and there are some practices that essential to employ if you want to be successful.
