到底多大的團隊規(guī)模才最好——既不會多付薪水，又能保證足夠的活力與效率？亞馬遜和蘋果的人力總監(jiān)告訴我們，隊員剛好能吃完兩個比薩，是最佳的型號，也就是“雙比薩團隊”（two-pizza teams）。

“Two-pizza teams” is the concept of keeping the team small enough that it can be fed with two pizzas. Small enough for the contribution of each member to make a noticeable contribution, in order to function it needs mutual dependence, a common objective and a single criterion of success for them all.

“雙比薩團隊”，就是說讓團隊保持在兩個比薩能讓隊員吃飽的小規(guī)模。團隊要小到讓每個成員都能做出顯著的貢獻，并且相互依賴，有共同目標，以及統(tǒng)一的成功標準。

If you’re working in a group bigger than 15 people, you’re fighting human nature. The number of the group members varies from three to twelve or fifteen, and perhaps optimizes somewhere around ten.

如果你在一個大于15人的團隊里工作，你就是在和人類本性對抗。團隊成員數(shù)量可以是3到12或者15個，最佳的成員數(shù)量是10個。
