Softcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschurfungen / Risse / Knicke. This handbook is essential for anyone involved in tracking and guiding software development at the team level, such as project managers and team leads. With the rise of agile methodologies like Scrum, traditional measurements have evolved, and this book highlights which metrics are most relevant and beneficial under specific conditions. It identifies key characteristics of organizational structure, process models, and development methods, enabling you to select the right metrics for your team. The book covers the uses, mechanics, and common misuses of various metrics that aid in steering and monitoring process improvement, all based on field experience. Just as a car's measurements help prevent issues like speeding or running out of gas, effective metrics can significantly reduce the likelihood of project failures. You'll learn to gather, analyze, and utilize metrics that reflect your organizational structure and development methods. Practical techniques include building tools for tracking key metrics and creating data-driven early warning systems. The content is accessible, requiring no formal experience in metrics development or application. Key topics include identifying valuable metrics, differentiating between "improvement" and "change," and understanding common pitfalls. The author, an organizational transformation consultant and agile community member, provides insights drawn from real-world experience.

Hardback. Condition: New. Since the onset of the global economic crisis, activists, policy makers, and social scientists have been searching for alternative paradigms through which to re-imagine contemporary modes of thinking and writing about economic orders. These attempts have led to their re-engagement with fundamental anthropological categories of economic analysis, such as barter, debt, and the gift. Focusing on favours, and the paradoxes of action, meaning, and significance they engender, this volume advocates for their addition to this list of economic universals. It presents a critical re-interrogation of the conceptual relationships between gratuitous and instrumental behaviour, and raises novel questions about the intersection of economic actions with the ethical and expressive aspects of human life. Scholars of post-socialist politics and society have often used 'favour' as a by-word for corruption and clientelism. The contributors to this volume treat favours, and the doing of favours, as a distinct mode of acting, rather than as a form of 'masked' economic exchange or simply an expression of goodwill. Casting their comparative net from post-socialist Central, Eastern, and South Eastern Europe; to the former Soviet Union, Mongolia, and post-Maoist China, the contributors to this volume show how gratuitous behaviour shapes a plethora of different actions, practices, and judgements across religious and political life, imaginative practices, and local moral economies. They show that favours do not operate 'outside' or 'beyond' the economic sphere. Rather, they constitute a distinct mode of action which has economic consequences, without being fully explicable in terms of transactional cost-benefit analyses.
