Recenzii
"The
ability
to
think
of
software
development
as
a
part
of
the
business
is
lacking
in
far
too
many
organizations. Many
CIO’s
report
to
the
COO
or
even
the
CFO
-
as
opposed
to
the
CEO. Technology
is
only
going
to
become
more
and
more
important
in
the
coming
years,
and
the
organizations
that
are
able
to
align
this
to
their
financial
needs
and
delivery
needs
are
the
ones
that
will
succeed
in
the
new
economy.
The ability to show and understand the alignment of a business sector bottom line to these methodologies will give companies some support in leaping the chasm to true Agile development.
This book addresses a much neglected gap between the technical and business aspects of software development. I recommend it for C-levels and project leads as well. It would also be a useful tool for the senior management that will be responsible for implementing such a solution." --Steve Ropa, Agile Consultant, VersionOne
"All agile practitioners dream of achieving development flywheels that yield high-value features on a predictable cadence. While today’s hubbub about Agile promises this, achieving it and then sustaining on-going momentum are difficult to say the least.
The Six Week Solution provides focus and solutions to many factors that must be addressed for high output teams. The pragmatic approaches found in the book can be directly adopted for new teams or, in some cases, adapted to improve existing agile operations. I recommend it as useful reading for those wanting a better understanding of the dynamics found in an agile-centered company."--Bill Wood, VP, Product Development, Ping Identity
