Highlight from 'Empowered' by Marty Cagan and Chris Jones
There is actually a third type of technology team, which is referred to as a delivery team (or âScrum teamâ or âdev teamâ). A delivery team doesn't even pretend to be a true product team. They are not crossâfunctional, and they are not empowered. There is a product owner (responsible for administering the product backlog) and some number of engineers. They are purely about output (code and ship). If you're running a process like SAFe, then this is unfortunately you, and truthfully, I have no idea why you would want to read this book, since what I describe here is the polar opposite both philosophically and practically.
