Successful Software Projects aren’t a Myth
Key to Success
One key to our success is our team: we don’t expect project managers to write code, testers to gather requirements, or programmers to meet with clients. Each person on our team is working in the area in which they excel, which makes the whole project work.
In short: don’t expect 1 person to wear multiple hats.
A software development project requires a wide variety of skillsets. Just as you can’t hire a plumber to design and build your house, you can’t hire a programmer to define, design, manage, code, and deliver your software system.
An innovative software developer who thrives on figuring out new technologies may not have the strong people skills necessary to be a good project manager.
A requirements analyst who excels at working with subject matter experts and translating business needs into software specifications may not have the technical skills necessary to write code.
A thorough tester who presses every button and follows every possible path through the system may not have the communication skills vital to an effective trainer.
One person can’t wear all the hats required for a successful software project.
