Description
Project Myopia by Allan Kelly explores why traditional project management approaches often fail in software development. By examining industry-recognized definitions of projects, Kelly reveals how these models deviate from reality and lead to poor outcomes. The author argues that focusing solely on time, scope, and cost can damage software quality, create goal displacement, and reduce overall value. He also discusses how projects frequently miss the bigger picture and why maximizing value requires a more holistic approach across multiple projects. Additionally, Kelly explains how debt can be beneficial in certain contexts and how projects often increase technical debt, hindering value delivery. For businesses looking to succeed in the digital age, understanding the limitations of traditional project management is crucial. This book provides valuable insights into the challenges of software development and offers practical advice for creating more effective approaches.
