my notes ( ? )
the increasingly collaborative nature of modern science. Perhaps nothing captures this dichotomy better than the story of the Higgs discovery... Almost 3,000 people qualify as authors on the key physics papers ATLAS produces... easier to guard against bias in interpreting the data
The depth and breadth of this effort transform the act of discovery into something anonymous and distributed—and this anonymity has been institutionalized in ATLAS culture... needed to innovate its management style and corporate culture... collaborative mode of working that flies in the face of standard “waterfall”... ATLAS management led with little or no formal authority... members are more likely to feel that they work with someone, rather than for them... top managers ... follow a politic of stewardship, looking after the collaboration rather than directing it...
consistently scored in the top 5 percent of a benchmark scale that measures how they control, disseminate, and capitalize on the information capital in their organization... it is the collaborations that reflect the hallmarks of genius: imagination, persistence, open-mindedness, and accomplishment. The results speak for themselves: ATLAS has already reached its first key objective in just one-tenth of its projected lifetime,
