It’s not clear to me whether the team approach can scale to a global organization, or whether you need the hybrid model. The notion is that the teams are coming in from, and reporting back up through, their communities. And their communities are communicating both within, and outside of, the organization.

I suspect, therefore, that the global picture isn’t fully represented in the report. I should admit that there’s a bias in the report, in that the membership of the Guild is largely (though not wholly) corporate, and again largely US based.
