# Team Shape Assessment
Evaluate organizational design for fast flow. Source: Skelton & Pais, *Team Topologies*,
**2nd edition (IT Revolution, 23 Sept 2025, ISBN 9781966280002)**.
**Model re-verified against primary sources 2026-09-01** — teamtopologies.com/key-concepts, the
2nd-edition publisher page, and the 2026 AI material (QCon London keynote 17 Mar 2026; "AI ROI"
executive report 12 Aug 2026). It is still **four** fundamental team types and **three**
interaction modes. The authors have added no AI-specific team type, and their stated position is
that none is needed. Third parties do propose new ones (SAFe, various blogs) and InfoQ's QCon
report names an "Innovation and Practices Enabling Team" — read the name: that is a *named
specialization of the existing enabling team*, not a fifth fundamental type. Do not add either to
the enum in `schemas/canvas/team-shape.schema.json`.
