Survival Skills for Developers
Set aside the fact that you are a software developer and have no business tromping around out in the wilderness. Surviving as a software developer is more than stringing together some lines of code that read and write from a database. The following 8 items form a basic survival pack that can get you through most modern software development forests:
Let’s suspend reality for a moment and pretend you’re heading out into the woods this weekend. You’re going to want to take along a few basics: maybe some matches, a tent or shelter of

Magic happens here - ERP, CRM, SAP, BPM
I suggest companies buy big application suites one the assumption that: Cost of Purchase + Cost of Customisation (programming) + Cost of Change Programme is less than < the Cost of Developing a Product from scratch And that: Cost of ongoing licencing + Cost of ongoing Maintenance is less than < Cost of Maintaining a Development Team to maintain a bespoke product You might also add in a saving in management time, headaches from managing software developers, speed to market and a few other variables but that is the basic equation.

Agile approach to BPM / BPE / BPR
Don’t just look to develop a small piece of software;; look at the business you want to enter, look at the product or service you plan to offer. Find the smallest possible product or service that you could enter the smallest possible market with. That doesn’t look good on a business plan, doesn’t look good when you are GE and you need big new markets and big new products to make any difference to your Continuing on the Business Process theme I want to think about what an Agile approach to BPM/BPR would be. For me there are two scenarios: Business Process Management

Notes on a Kanban software development experience
I’ve mentioned the Kanban software development method in this blog before. For those who don’t know its “the new kid on the block” in Agile circles - although the originator (David Anderson) would be quick to point out it is designed to be a Lean development method. What I found was: it works, and I feel it is a better models of my own approach to software development than other methods. Last year I did some consulting with a large online travel agency. I was involved with helping five teams “get Agile.”

Agile software development with Kanban
A lot of people in Agile circles are talking about David Anderson’s Kanban software development technique. According to Steve, David is finding that his bottleneck is not development. Anyway, I’ll say it now: The Bottleneck has moved. In my own experiences with my Blue-White-Red agile method , I found that while it took time for developers to do work this was simply leg-work. To be honest I’ve looked at some of David’s online material and I haven’t really seen anything that new. But then, I’ve never spoken to David or seen any of his presentations.

Agile software development: a prototype for all knowledge work?
I’m convinced that software developers (programmers, testers, product managers, etc. So, we get discussions about “the software factory” and we hear managers describe how they can make their “factory” more efficient - as if the developers were working on a production line. The metaphor continues, too many people in the business are concerned with “process” the idea - taken from Fredric Taylor and scientific management - that if we (the management) Last week I reviewed Thinking for a Living , I’d like to pick up one or two points raised in this book and discuss them a little further.

Product managers are software developers too!
It is an association of professional developers, for my money the members are among the best software engineers in the world. Great people, if you ever get the chance to hire an ACCU member then do so, they share a passion for software development, improvement and learning. But, as I’ve said here before I am no longer a software engineer – I am a Product Manager . On Wednesday night I was out drinking with ACCU members in London. For those of you who don’t know the ACCU I’d better explain.

Nurnberg funnel and software development
After reading Minimalism beyond the Nurnberg Funnel I have been thinking what implication these theories could have for software development itself. First for system design. The software would treat users as problem solvers and allow them to combine the tasks in what ever way they like to solve their wider problem. Usually the documentation software developers write to describe Minimalist documentation aims at being task oriented. The idea is that the readers (users) are trying to do something and need to solve a problem – how do I? –

Thoughts on strategy and software development
My last two blog entries, and some recent reading (I’ll write about it soon) have given me a lot of food for thought about business strategy and how it relates to software development. If you are going to expand beyond the ideas on the owner’s head then it is necessary to communicate so everyone can pursue the same aims. Moving from implicit strategy to explicit strategy allows three things (at least) to happen: • Strategy can be communicated and therefore shared so more people can be involved in the business • Strategy can be analysed, therefore problems can be spotted and new

XP2 and the real problem in software development
So, while I’m a big fan of the Agile development movement I’m not fanatical about any of the methodologies. The book describes an alternative way to live your life, an ideal, it rallied people and made them think “things can be different” – it offered an alternative identity, it said “developers are really important, don’t devalue coding.” If you are interested in XP, Agile or Lean development the best book you can read is Poppendieck and Poppendieck . I went to talk given by Rachel Davies last night. This was organised by the BCS SPA group who hold monthly sessions
