Techiness cannot be used as a warp thread

Software development is one of the industries where the teamwork plays a very critical role. Most of the teams and companies are aware about the difficulties they are facing due to the ill shaped distribution of the 'effectiveness of skills' among the people.


This is not happening automatically. Due to many reasons, the distribution of 'effectiveness of skills' is gradually transforming into this shape.

One can argue that you need to go far in your area of speciality and it is enough to have a certain level of skills in the other areas. Very true, and the above diagrams are not showing the amount of knowledge you have in each area or amount of time you spend on each area but the effectiveness of applying each skill set at your work.

In order to build teams, specially distributed teams which is getting common in practice, people need to be effective in many areas.


If teams need to produce better results the technical skills of the team members need to be weft using their soft skills.

Our techiness cannot be used as a warp thread.
