This book presents a fresh perspective on software project management. It moves beyond the basic understanding of project management to analyze managerial aspects of software development. The author's perspective is framed through the lens of feedback systems principles and system dynamics, which emphasizes how the actions taken by one person or group ultimately affect them. The author finds that understanding these complex systems is beyond human intuition, highlighting the need for a holistic model of the software development process. The book integrates multiple project functions and pulls from both the R&D and software production environments. Its insights are backed by field interviews, empirical findings, and case studies of real-world software projects. This book will be an asset for software developers, managers, and anyone interested in gaining a comprehensive understanding of software project management.
