I remember joining a team in the late 1970s that supported an application used worldwide by a large corporation. The team resolved to drive that number down.

For sure, the easiest way to become a software project manager is by getting a promotion inside an IT company. So, if you are just starting your career, I strongly recommend getting a job on an IT project in any other capacity like QA, Developer, DevOps, Business Analyst, or a Scrum Master. 10 to 15 people on the project team.

In working with technical people at the individual and team levels, I often find attitudes that pull toward one extreme or the other: Either our work is inherently uninteresting, and we’re only in it for the paycheck; or our work is a boundless source of joy, learning, and achievement through which we can transcend the human condition.

If, for example, a project manager believes a member of his or her team is a fast and effective worker, each time that team member works fast and effectively or is told by a colleague about the work that has been done fast and effectively, the project manager will consider his or her belief to be well-founded. What To Do Next?

What if, instead of getting larger and more brittle over time, making changes more risky, your software could get more modular and simpler, increasing the safety of the developers working on the code? The key to soft software is focusing on creating that safety first. How many of you used to be a developer?
