| Two Pizza Rules | Jeff Bezos |
Bezos seems to believe in small, autonomous groups. (Maybe the roots for this go back to his days as a start-up CEO).
He believes in a "two pizza rule" for teams, meaning that the groups should be small enough to feed with only two pizzas. This generally works out to about 5 to 7 people in a team.
At Amazon, the two-pizza teams have created the Gold Box feature that we still see today.
When team grow larger, they have a tendency to become less efficient. This inefficiency reduces the output of the team and leads to waste. So keep team small and let them test.
