Description

Many software projects begin well, only to end up delayed and over budget, or failing. How can a project manager, who often feels alone, isolated, and misunderstood in a project, effectively save a project from certain death? In How to Rescue Failing Software Projects: Practical Proven Methods That Work, software expert Bernard Ong pulls from nearly two decades of experience to formulate a rescue plan that works. Project directors, project managers, software architects, and developers will benefit from Bernard's process and the real-life examples found throughout the book. This book is not theory and methodology. It is a hands-on, step-by-step guide for rescuing failing software projects. Included is Bernard's five-step rescue formula that is used by the author to rescue real-life failing software projects. Read about the hows and whys of project rescues, as well as a concise explanation of how to execute the plan. Following this rescue formula will increase your chances of success.
