Ultimately, every software development leader’s primary responsibility is to lead their organization to deliver quality products on time and under budget, but until now, there hasn’t been a concise set of principles for managers to follow to ensure these goals are met. Principles of Software Development Leadership successfully integrates principles outlined by PMI® in its Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide 4th Edition) with software leadership best-practices. It provides all levels of software management, from program managers and project managers to software executives, with a set of best-practices that will collectively create successful outcomes, and in turn will motivate software teams to deliver quality products on time.

Principles of Software Development Leadership is available from fine book resellers including Buy.com, Amazon, and Barnes and Noble.
