I have been working hard on a paper that relates Flock Theory by D.Rosen to Scrum and Scrum Teams. The paper has now been published by the Scrum Alliance as an official resource and can be found here on the Scrum Alliance website

Overview
In this article we look at Flock Theory by D.Rosen for answers to creating highly optimized, self organised Scrum teams. Once we have learned the technicalities of Scrum - the roles, the artifacts and the meetings - we then begin over time to gain an understanding that strong team work and communication is key to a good Scrum team. But how do we achieve that? How do we build a Scrum team and how do we provide for their needs? How do we manage the challenges of the social complexities involved in teamwork?

Mike will be adding the article to his new book Succeeding With Agile as further reading in his section on Teamwork.
