  Book Information

In small but growing software companies, the engineering
manager is in the unique position of having to deal with the
technical team and other senior managers, while at the same
time taking direction from the CEO. Once the company begins
to grow, problems that once seemed small can explode into
time-consuming crises. Growing Software offers critical
advice for managing software development teams and the
software that they're creating. The book deals with almost
everything that a typical manager encounters-from personnel
decisions and relations with other departments to project
estimates and software release strategies. It provides
general advice and specific solutions, as well as detailed
templates and spreadsheets to help you put concepts into
action. Whether you're new or newly lost, Growing Software
gives you the rules to follow to make your experience a
success.
