Hi,

Some people say that managers are born and not bred. I do not believe it. Managers in fact are bred. A line manager must have good knowledge about his business line; only then he can make good decisions. Similarly a C level executive must know the strengths and weakness of his company as well as have experience of the market place to make good decisions. Without prior experience no manager can make good decisions.

Why I was discussing this point is because I recently read your book “Software project Management – A Process Driven Approach”. You must be having a very good experience in software projects because the book you have written is brilliant and it contains the practical knowledge you may have gathered in your career. The book discusses many practical problems faced by software project managers.

Hi,

I just read your book on software project management (Software Project Management – A Process Driven Approach). I found it useful and informative. Not only project management but software engineering has also been covered extensively in the book.

I recommend it for all software project managers as well as students.

Hi Ashfaque,

Life is tough these days! It is not different for me. I have juggle among my duties at office and at home with finding less time to manage than required. In these circumstances, there is no time for trial and error. You have to be sure 100% as to what is required of you and your team so that you never have to do any rework or ponder about how to do it.

After reading your book, I have learned many project management techniques which are helping me tremendously in my job.

Thank you for the good work.

Howdy Ashfaque,

I had a chance to read your book “Software Project Management – A Process Driven Approach” recently after a friend of mine recommended it. Even though some parts of your book were not of much interest to me but over all I liked it. The most interesting part of the book i found was the chapter on process selection techniques for various kinds of software projects. i fully agree with you that there is no cookie cutter for software project management which will enable software projects to be handled with just one way. It depends on nature of the project and the environment in which the project is executed. Size also matters immensely. Indeed the chapter was thought provoking! That chapter alone was worth spending money in buying the book.

This book presents all aspects of modern project management practices, from project initiation to requirements gatherings to estimation techniques and software testing all the way to customer management and supplier management … includes a wealth of quality templates that practitioners can use to build their own tools. … equally useful to students and professionals alike. … the perfect blend of theory and practice providing ample advice to the reader at every stage on such topics as how to select a particular software methodology over other or how to estimate project costs/efforts etc. … As a seasoned software product development expert with over 20 years of experience, I would say this book will find a slot on my desk.
