Developers and content teams often clash due to fundamentally flawed systems rather than personality differences, resulting in wasted time and productivity losses. This misalignment stems from developers working with Git and version control while content teams operate within Google Docs and CMS ecosystems, leading to sprint delays, technical debt, duplicate content, and high error rates. The core issues include mismatched definitions of project completion and collaboration tools that don't integrate well with team workflows. Solutions involve adopting content-as-code practices, automating manual processes, and bridging knowledge gaps between teams. By rethinking interactions at a systemic level, organizations can streamline workflows, enhance collaboration, and allow each team to work efficiently within their natural processes without conflict.
