I'm a musician and a programmer, with minimal theory knowledge but extensive work experience in both areas. I can do productive work, but at the same time, can see my own limitations. For instance, I would have a hard time organizing a large scale effort in either area: In music, that would be something like creating a long composition or arrangement involving multiple musicians. In programming, it would be coming up with the architecture for a big project.
Still, in a vein similar to a comment that I made about education yesterday, I wonder if there is such a thing as a "theory" of the formation and administration of work teams, i.e., of a level of reliability similar to music or programming theory.
