people ware

bu sıralar Tom De Marco'nun People Ware kitabını okuyorum. kendisi project manager, software architect, consultant ... gayet başarılı biri. yazılım olayını da çözmüş. adam bu iş ne hardware ne de software diyo, ama people ware!!!

kitaptan en begendigm kısımlar:

sociology matters more than technology or even money. It's supposed to be productive, satisfying to work. If it isn't, then there is nothing else worth concentrating on.

The business we're doing in is more sociological than technological, more dependent on worker's abilties to communicate with each other than their abilities to communicate with machines.

The people who write the methodology are smart. The people who carry it out can be dumb. The methodology makes all the decisions, the people make none.

What seemed to be happening was that the change itself wasn't as important as the act of changing. People were charmed by differentness, they liked the attention. This is called 'Hawthorne Effect'. It says that people perform better when they're trying something new.
