Have done some of these recently - Smaller teams are better value/$ spent [Confirmed]

- More frequent releases accelerate learning what has real value [No improvement]

- Limiting work in progress, solving one problem at a time,increases delivery throughput [Continued]

- Cross-functional teams experience fewer bottlenecks and blockers than specialised teams [Confirmed]

Empowered, self-organising teams spend less time waiting for decisions and more time getting sh*t done [Confirmed]

Additionally, smaller teams 1-3 engineers per project who are empowered are much happier. Side effect was time spent on process, tickets, communication dropped dramatically. Time spent on creating and confirming increased.

In a large organization solving your own blockers can be the difference between releasing next week and releasing next quarter. More frequent releases only help in a business where users adopt new features quickly.
