I've been working for startups for the last 5 or 6 years and in each situation the teams have been small and responsible for multiple activities in the company from development to implementation and support. I am really interested in reading this book as I think I can relate quite a bit. As for your situation, not sure what your team dynamic is or what they are responsible for but we have tried applying Scrum principals such as using retrospectives to constantly measure and improve the processes we put in place to deal with rapid change and re-focus. This 'adhoc' method has worked but it feels like more organized (or partially organized) chaos. The benefit of course being the team is very 'Agile' but the biggest drawback being the team burns out quicker.
