A Management Fable

Once upon a time… A manager –10 out of 40 developers –Multiple platform software product –VAX, Eclipse, Apollo –Software developed, tested, debugged

The situation Software delivery schedule “challenged” Management declares –focus first on VAX –then on Eclipse –then on Apollo Testing will follow in the same order Finally, debugging will take place

The situation

Solving Problems Swidden

Solving Problems Horizontal Nomadism

Solving Problems Periodic Markets

Solving Problems

…and they lived happily ever after.
