How should researchers be distributed and how big should teams be?
How to organize Research and Development?

So many questions when it comes to dividing research staff into sub-units!

Here are just a few examples:

• How can we prevent specialists from forging their own ivory towers?

• How can we avoid the NIT "Not invented here" syndrome, where researchers are only interested in their own production and reject external contributions or challenges?

• How can you have specialists at your disposal, while at the same time being able to carry out interdisciplinary work that often leads to innovation?

• What is a critical mass for in-depth treatment of a subject?

• How can researchers' time be managed between the need to keep their expertise up to date and directly productive tasks?
