Thanks for your comment. I believe the first step in building such a team requires getting the right people onboard. Regarding this, you should read Jim Collins’ book “Good to Great” where he stresses the importance this exact step for high-performing companies. Also, be sure to read Marcus Buckingham & Curt Coffman’s book “First Break All the Rules”. Here you’ll learn a strengths based approach for determining who is “right”. If you’re interesting in a strengths based hiring approach read through this post for more information. Be sure to also read through Seth Godin’s, “Linchpin”, as it reinforces much of the findings from Daniel Pink, while also describing why the autonomy, mastery and purpose Pink talks about are so important in this 21st century of knowledge work. On that note, for a deeper analysis into the importance of self-organization, trust and adjustment, and the systems thinking mindset in particular, be sure to read through Jurgen Appelo’s “Management 3.0″ book. Hope this helps.

Nice article, really liked it. I love Pink’s ideas with Motivation3.0 and Flow too. Would be interested in how to build such a team from 0? Question is not about hiring a new designer or sysadmin, it’s more about roles and personalities.
Is there any good source or any research about this?
Thanks for your article, enjoyed a lot!
