Good intentions, bad outcomes

How Technical Silos Create Invisible Bottlenecks

Xodiac Season 1 Episode 5

In this episode, Gino Marckx and Wayne Hetherington explore why organizing teams around technical components creates dependencies that slow down your entire organization.

Discover:

  • Why component teams introduce crippling dependencies
  • How "islands of knowledge" become serious bottlenecks
  • The hidden costs of teams protecting "their territory"
  • Practical steps to break down silos without reorganizing everything
  • Why self-service platforms and cross-team collaboration work


Perfect for technical leaders, project managers, and architects struggling with cross-team dependencies!
