A knowledgable and skilled crew works autonomously, and at full potential.
Forces:
- Becoming dependent on single specialists is all too easy.
- Subject matter experts tend to become over-specialized.
- Allocating specialized resources is a tedious and expensive job.
- Task switching specialist across multiple projects or teams exponentially reduces productivity.
- stable teams are more predictable, sustainable and resilient.
Rather than having a specialist join the team for half a day, every week, have the team trained by the specialist on the required topics. Hire an (external) expert with the goal to transfer as much knowledge, skill and experience in a limited time. Set up the exit criteria for the external expert up front—how do you measure when the knowledge injection is complete?
Therefore:
Inject the required knowledge by hiring an external expert or coach that teaches the team to fish.
