This table shows eight person team. I believe this fits the Productive Innovative Engine (PIE) Framework nicely by expanding the six hat PIE team to include Resources and Partners Sitting at end of table. This is a logical layout for the PIE Team. (Picture borrowed from SWERVE flyer 3/4/2016).
The graphic below from http://bcswonline.blogspot.com/2013/11/pie.html shows various hats
related to PIE Framework.
Shown on this image is the earlier version showing the Innovative Engine Team Hats:
1. Business (Entrepreneur)
2. Customer (Marketplace)
3. Technologist (Operates & Makes Things)
4. Engineer (Creates Designs that solve problems)
5. Scientist (Research and creates new Technologies)
6. Logistics (Global Supply Chain)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Resources (new) cupped hand with coins and seedling graphic
Human Resources/$Resources/Technical Resources
8. Partners (new) hand shake graphic
Sourcing & Operating Partners & Financial Partners
Adding Resources and Partners to the Team rounds out to a nice functional eight Hat Team. This gives robustness and completeness to the PIE Framework.
May I suggest the next time you are sitting at a table with your team, look around at everyone at the table and identify each hat they are wearing. This should give you a new set of eyes.
