The Babel failure of the man-moon myth notes

Preface : In the initial world, people have only one language, so we talk to build a tower of Babel, can lead to the Babel of heaven, but God appeared, he gave people different language, so that everyone finally can not communicate, the final team dismissed, Babel this failure, So what the authors of this chapter want to tell us is that " communication " is important for successful projects.

Communication in a programming projectThe main focus of the book is the exchange of large projects, but it is also suitable for my current team:

1. Informal communication: Before the Japanese and Japanese companies communication is mainly a conference call, then the small team of informal communication is the collaboration of the people together to talk to each other.
2. Meetings: Standing meetings, analysis seminars, project evaluations, etc. any form of meeting.
3. Work Manual: This is not very likely to be done well in our team.

organizational structure of programming projectsThe tree structure appears as the right and the responsibility structure, then is the so-called stratification responsibility system, the department manager under the Sub-project manager, the project manager manages the different function module, such a layer of.

1. Product Owner: Component Team, Division work and make progress chart. Communicate and communicate with the team outside, and establish communication and reporting methods within the team to ensure the achievement of progress objectives.
2. Technical Supervisor: Indicate the external appearance of the system and outline the internal structure. Provide technical solutions when technical challenges are encountered.

So how does the above two roles exist as the most important part of the organizational structure?

1. Two characters for the same person, the team for the 3~6 people, obviously that is my team, currently 3 people, my ideal is 5 people. I am in this structure, feel shuttle in the role of technology and management, sometimes feel very tired, sometimes feel very existence feeling, hehe.
2. The product leader is the commander in chief and the technical supervisor is the left hand. The book says that this combination is rarely applied, because it is difficult for a technical director to be authoritative when he is not responsible for management, which weakens his contribution to the team.
3. The technical supervisor is the commander in chief and the product owner is the left hand. Let the technical director concentrate on solving the technical problems, and the responsible person to take care of other matters.

Summary : the establishment of a reasonable set of organizations, so that people communicate more smoothly, is to ensure the success of a project key.
