*** Quote of the Month ***


There is surely no team sport in which every player on the field is not accurately aware of the score at any and every moment of play. Yet in software development it is not uncommon to find team members who do not know the next deadline, or what their colleagues are doing. Nor is it uncommon to find managers who have no insight into the work coming their way, or indeed what happens to work when it leaves them.
