To develop a good project, you need to consider two important factors — a project idea and a team of specialists. Speaking about the team, there is always a question: what team structure to choose? Cross-functional teams or CFT becomes more and more popular nowadays despite the fact that 75% of them didn’t reach the final goal.
What is Cross-Functional Team?
The cross-functional team stands for a group of specialists that work on different departments but collaborate with each other to reach the final goal of the project faster.
For instance, you’ve decided to make a website. To achieve this goal you need various specialists, e.g. a requirement analyst, a project manager, a quality assurance engineer, a UI/UX designer, and several web developers. These specialists build your project together constantly communicating with each other.
