商品描述

“Mantle and Lichty have assembled a guide that will help you hire, motivate, and mentor a software development team that functions at the highest level. Their rules of thumb and coaching advice are great blueprints for new and experienced software engineering managers alike.”

—Tom Conrad, CTO, Pandora

 

“I wish I’d had this material available years ago. I see lots and lots of ‘meat’ in here that I’ll use over and over again as I try to become a better manager. The writing style is right on, and I love the personal anecdotes.”

—Steve Johnson, VP, Custom Solutions, DigitalFish 

All too often, software development is deemed unmanageable. The news is filled with stories of projects that have run catastrophically over schedule and budget. Although adding some formal discipline to the development process has improved the situation, it has by no means solved the problem. How can it be, with so much time and money spent to get software development under control, that it remains so unmanageable?

 

In Managing the Unmanageable: Rules, Tools, and Insights for Managing Software People and Teams , Mickey W. Mantle and Ron Lichty answer that persistent question with a simple observation: You first must make programmers and software teams manageable. That is, you need to begin by understanding your people—how to hire them, motivate them, and lead them to develop and deliver great products. Drawing on their combined seventy years of software development and management experience, and highlighting the insights and wisdom of other successful managers, Mantle and Lichty provide the guidance you need to manage people and teams in order to deliver software successfully.

 

Whether you are new to software management, or have already been working in that role, you will appreciate the real-world knowledge and practical tools packed into this guide.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

「Mantle 和 Lichty 編寫了一本指南,幫助您招聘、激勵和指導一支高效能的軟體開發團隊。他們的經驗法則和指導建議對於新手和經驗豐富的軟體工程經理來說都是極好的藍圖。」
— Tom Conrad, Pandora 首席技術官

「我希望幾年前就能擁有這些資料。我在這裡看到很多‘實質’內容,將在我努力成為更好經理的過程中反覆使用。寫作風格恰到好處,我喜歡這些個人故事。」
— Steve Johnson, DigitalFish 客製化解決方案副總裁

軟體開發常常被認為是無法管理的。新聞中充斥著項目嚴重超出預算和時間的故事。儘管在開發過程中加入一些正式的紀律改善了情況,但這並未解決問題。花費如此多的時間和金錢來控制軟體開發,為什麼它仍然如此難以管理?

在《Managing the Unmanageable: Rules, Tools, and Insights for Managing Software People and Teams》中,Mickey W. Mantle 和 Ron Lichty 用一個簡單的觀察回答了這個持續的問題:您首先必須使程式設計師和軟體團隊變得可管理。也就是說,您需要從了解您的團隊開始——如何招聘他們、激勵他們,並引導他們開發和交付優秀的產品。Mantle 和 Lichty 利用他們七十年的軟體開發和管理經驗,並突顯其他成功經理的見解和智慧,提供您所需的指導,以便成功管理人員和團隊,交付軟體。

無論您是剛接觸軟體管理,還是已經在這個角色中工作,您都會欣賞這本指南中所包含的實務知識和實用工具。
