This reminds me of those useless articles like "Donald Trump should resign". Okay, and? We should all have mansions and sex robots. It's utterly pointless to pontificate about should; it makes it sound like you have no understanding of the actual real world. In the real world, your company is run by pathetic parasitic asshole narcissists who will never give half a shit what anyone like you thinks.



This. It all boils down to shared vision and autonomy. All teams should be acting in concert for the same goal. If they aren't the board needs to cut the CEO yesterday and find someone who is going to foster a cooperative culture.

I work in a company where each team is aligned and has autonomy and trust, where people listen and find ways to help the other team. It's game theory with the right algorithm installed. Oddly enough, the company was founded during the peak of the military hierarchial taylorism cargo cult clusterfuck that bore mutants like GE. The military doesn't even work the way these companies operate.
