Experience is a powerful teacher, but it’s also slow and painful.

Software practitioners can’t afford to make every mistake others have suffered. You can compress the education and bypass much of the pain by absorbing lessons from others who have already climbed the learning curves.

Based on Karls 50+ years of software experience and 25 years of helping software teams succeed in nearly 150 organizations, the book Software Development Pearls: Lessons from Fifty Years of Software Experience presents 60 lessons you can apply to projects regardless of the application domain, technology, development lifecycle, or your role.

These pragmatic principles, perspectives, and practices cover six crucial domains of project success: requirements, design, project management, culture and teamwork, quality, and process improvement.

In this presentation Karl briefly introduces 24 of the 60 lessons and drills down into six additional lessons. Collecting such pearls of software wisdom can pay off quickly for anyone striving to build high-quality software products.

Presenter: Karl E. Wiegers (LinkedIn profile) Principal Consultant Process Impact has provided training and consulting services worldwide on many aspects of software development, management and process improvement.

Karl is the author of many books including:

The future of work has been changing, and fast. Organizations worldwide are realizing the value achieved by changing their ways of working to become more adaptable, more experimental, and more innovative.

This strategic realization is requiring a fresh reflection on who the future leaders are and a fast shift toward scaling a new mix of leadership qualities.

The leaders of this hybrid future will invest in building a trust currency. They will need to build an adaptive mindset, free themselves from the dogma of “this is how we’ve always done it,” and focus on making an immense sustainable impact while using digitization to scale the value delivery of the change efforts.

This future of work is projectized, fluid, and requires servant leaders who enable their team members to be empathic and who create a culture where team members feel safe to express their diverse views openly and experiment often and fast.

Explore:

  • Skillsets for leading change initiatives
  • The adaptability attributes of the evolving leaders around experimentation, resilience, integrating, and connecting
  • The culture of tomorrow’s leading organizations
  • The strategic role of the project economy in creating and sustaining value
  • The leader’s role in creating a clear focus for the future organization
