Wie skaliert man eine Firma (DevCon 2013)

6.840 Aufrufe

Veröffentlicht am

Wooga ist einer der weltweit erfolgreichsten Anbieter von Social Games für Web und Mobile. In den letzten drei Jahren hat sich die Anzahl der Mitarbeiter jeweils mehr als verdoppelt, aber der Kern der Unternehmensstruktur blieb unverändert: Im Mittelpunkt stehen Game-Teams, jeweils aufgestellt wie ein kleines, agiles Start-up, die zusammen das große Ganze bilden. So gelang es Wooga, seine Kultur zu erhalten, die in der Verantwortung und Entscheidungsfreiheit der Einzelnen die Basis ist. Jesper wird darüber sprechen, wie das in der Praxis funktioniert und wie es trotz der Autonomie der Teams möglich bleibt, Innovationen von einem Team auf andere zu übertragen.
