Ever wonder why a product or service can feel like a jumbled puzzle of disconnected pieces? The answer often lies in the way people interact behind the scenes. This episode’s guest, Noah Healy, shines a spotlight on Conway’s Law—the principle that every organization’s product reflects its internal communication. The discussion zeroes in on how small, focused teams can outpace sprawling groups, and why strategic silos sometimes spark real innovation. Uncover why over-architecture often derails productivity, and learn how automation can take tedious tasks off human plates. Real-life scenarios illustrate how misaligned teams produce chaotic offerings, while aligned teams roll out seamless user experiences. If you’re looking to scale without losing agility, you’ll find fresh takes on how to design (and redesign) your business processes.
