Two elements: human and thinking-the art of software talent management; book reviews

I still remember that I have heard of a successful person's reading method, or whether he has a valuable understanding of a book. If a book has 200 pages,There are 10 pages for you to gain something, which is valuable.

I still remember that some people have said similar things about training.If you can remember three sentences, this day is not a waste of time..

After reading the book "The Art of Software Talent Management", I think the above point of view is very correct. This book is not thick enough to explain the principle of the sky, we didn't list too many rules to follow, but used a lot of words to describe the author's experiences in managing software talents in his actual work, the content of the experience is completely reserved for the readers. A few days later, after reading this book, I remember that there are only two words, or two elements in Software Talent Management --Human and thinking.

Many people have stressed that,People-oriented management in software projects.This point of view is also emphasized in the book. In the Lanz hierarchy described in Chapter 13th, the first important thing is the conception, the next is people, and then the process and product. In fact, it makes sense to think carefully. After all, it is far from enough to have a process or rules and regulations, after all, all things are done by people. In addition, only people in the team have enough cohesion, confidence, and efforts to achieve the purpose can the idea finally become a product. Otherwise, how can I succeed in a team that is just like a walking lantern? If such a team can also produce products, it can only be said that the users who use those products are not lucky. Every day, they can only pray that the product should not have too serious problems.

Thinking about this element is actually very important for every job.But it is emphasized again in the book that only when the work pressure is not too high and there is leisure time can we calm down and think about it. In addition, you should focus on your thinking, and the book will turn this way of thinking into immersion thinking. Only by putting all your thoughts on one thing and calling a large number of brain cells can you really consider all aspects of one thing and come up with a suitable solution.

The last point I got from the book is about these two elements --Think about how to treat everyone. Everyone has their own characteristics, which is inevitable. In a completely mechanical job, this may not be especially obvious, because everyone does not have to think too much about the problem, as long as they follow their habits to complete the task. In the software development team, because every person's mind is always running at high speed, everyone has a lot of ideas, which are different from each other. For such a team, as a manager, if you treat everyone in the same way, most people will be dissatisfied with this management method. We should adopt different management methods for each member so that everyone can exert their maximum energy.

After reading this book, I learned that the art of software talent management lies in two points:People-oriented, good at thinking.
