Teams Build Good Software, Not Resources

Chapter Chapter 7 in Becoming a Software Company, 2023, pp 161-188 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Teams build good software, not a collection of resources. Planning software development work by allocating people as “resources” hinders the realization of the true potential of the software revolution. It is an anti-pattern. This anti-pattern worked when there was new value in just implementing the latest commercial enterprise software packages at the lowest cost possible. It doesn’t when enterprises have to innovate on new use cases. The real source of innovation is a team gelling in a culture that allows it to be creative and to achieve its most optimal flow. A team is the pattern antidote to the resources anti-pattern.
