[issue 89]()
 
#### Editor’s note
 

[Creating a dedicated speed team](https://calibreapp.com/blog/site-speed-improvement-framework) might be one of the first steps in a web performance journey. Your newly established team can identify areas for improvement and deliver measurable results. There’s a catch, though.

If we silo web performance work to a limited group of people, their positive impact will be short-lived. Without prioritising speed at an organisational level—setting transparent goals and spreading awareness, someone in a completely different department can undo any gains with one decision. Why? They might not know speed is a consideration.

Just like employees rally behind a company mission or values, we all need to rally behind web performance.
