SPaMCAST 23 - Rothman,
Project Management , Traceability






** I believe I am back on track
since the motherboard failure.  We should
be back on track for delivering your favorite process improvement and
measurement content every other week! **






 






Show 23 features an interview with Johanna Rothman.
 The interview is titled, “Project
Management in the Post Waterfall World". 
While the title is a bit fanciful I would suggest that the ideas
espoused are very powerful and pertinent to how work is done and managed. 






 






Johanna Rothman consults, speaks, and writes on
managing high-technology product development. She assists managers, teams, and
organizations to become more effective by applying her pragmatic approaches to
the issues of project management, risk management, and people management. She’s
helped Engineering organizations, IT organizations, and startups hire technical
people, manage projects, and release successful products faster.






 






Johanna is the author of Manage It! Your Guide to
Modern, Pragmatic Project Management, the coauthor (with Esther Derby) of
Behind Closed Doors, Secrets of Great Management, and the author of Hiring the
Best Knowledge Workers, Techies & Nerds: The Secrets and Science of Hiring
Technical People. Johanna is a host and session leader at the Amplifying Your
Effectiveness (AYE) conference.

The essay
is titled is the synopsis of “Traceability: 
A Radical Approach Based on User Involvement." I am excited as I have
finally completed the essay and I think it adds a lot to the discussion of
traceability and tailoring.   I will push entire document out on the
SPaMCAST feed later this week.   The text of the synopsis can be found at www.tcagley.wordpress.com.  Comments and corrections are welcome.






There
are a number of ways to share your thoughts . .
