-This rule suggests that regardless of the size of the company, teams should be small enough to be fed by two pizzas. Attributed to Jeff Bezos and Amazon, this belief is suggests that large teams are inherently inefficient. This is supported by the fact that as the team size increases linearly, the links between people increases exponentially; thus the cost of coordinating and communicating also grows exponentially. If this cost of coordination is essentially overhead, then smaller teams should be preferred.
+This rule suggests that regardless of the size of the company, teams should be small enough to be fed by two pizzas. Attributed to Jeff Bezos and Amazon, this belief is suggests that large teams are inherently inefficient. This is supported by the fact that as the team size increases linearly, the links between people increases quadratically; thus the cost of coordinating and communicating also grows quadratically. If this cost of coordination is essentially overhead, then smaller teams should be preferred.
The number of links between people can be expressed as `n(n-1)/2` where n = number of people.
