I agree that morale and performance suffer when people fear for their jobs. The question is what are they going to do about it: hide and protect or expose and communicate. Neither strategy is guaranteed to preserve your job. Which one can you live with best? Which one maximizes your changes of holding a job that meets your needs?
I don't have experience with multi-site projects and XP, so the chapter is philosophical--how do the principles of XP apply in a novel situation? Others here do have that experience. I hope they will say something when they are ready.
