team size How many people a thing needs, and what the extra ones cost: headcount, coordination, and the small-team claim.

What Marvin Schwaibold actually said

  1. Marvin Schwaibold Leads the Product Design Studio at Shopify
    You don't want to be a mile wide and an inch deep with your team. That's how you lose creativity. That's how you lose the environment where somebody with a specific skill set can be successful and can work in. You want to keep the team together. You want to keep the team really close and you want to sequence more than you do parallel.
