Adrenalin-Junkies und Formular-Zombies

Behaviors that make your projects successful or doom them to failure!

The members of the Atlantic Systems Guild, authors of bestsellers such as "The Deadline", "Happy to Work Here", "Vienna is Waiting for You!" and many more, have scrutinized thousands of projects and describe here typical behaviors - harmful as well as useful.
They show how projects can get into trouble with window dressing, management by mood, or endless debates. On the other hand, the work of development teams can be successfully promoted with Don't Talk Long, the Grand Bazaar, Natural Authority and - not to be forgotten - Essen++.

"Brilliantly insightful. One moment you think, 'Darn it, I'm doing this .... we're toast,' followed by the certainty: 'I'm not the only one. There's hope!"
Howard Look - Vice President, Software, Pixar Animation Studios

"Another masterpiece from the folks who developed Peopleware. Anyone who has survived a software project or two will certainly recognize many of these patterns and be able to learn from most of them. Adrenaline Junkies and Form Zombies is a real treat."
Joel Spolsky - author of "Joel on Software"
