If you are asking yourself Why are my engineers unable to deliver?, Why are so many engineers leaving? or Why is our software riddled with bugs?, then you've come to the right place. This book acts as a concise, practical guide on how to lead successful agile projects in a remote environment.
The authors draw from industry experience and a wide range of fields and disciplines--from software engineering to criminology and sociology--to teach you how to maintain technical oversight, manage deadlines, and calibrate expectations, while also creating and maintaining a healthy remote work environment. You will gain both practical tips grounded in reality, while learning why such tips work by navigating the background on which they are founded--from Broken Window Theory, Labeling Theory to the Dunning-Kruger.
As software engineers , we like to tell ourselves that the codebase defines a successful product: clean, easy to understand, testable, well-structured. However, this is only partially true. The main pillar of any product is the people behind it, and the main challenges in software engineering today are human, not technical. A bad codebase can be refactored and made robust by good engineers and a leader who knows how to facilitate it. At the same time, a good codebase can be ruined in a matter of weeks by lack of direction, lack of oversight, and pent-up frustration. The latter not only impacts code, but inevitably leads to wider problems within the team. If not contained by leaders, these problems quickly expand beyond the team. Rot spreads, and once settled in within a company, it can become very difficult to clean up. Like steering a massive oil tanker, fixing dysfunctional teams takes a tremendous amount of time and force, and often entails a heavy cost.
Leadership Paradigms for Remote Agile Development will show you how to avoid the most common mistakes and pitfalls that cause engineering projects to fail while at the same time maintaining high ethical standards.
