Thom reviewed Peopleware by Tom DeMarco
Review of 'Peopleware' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
A collection of essays, each a few pages at most, about how to manage teams. The focus is definitely on software developers, though most teams of creative types would benefit from the advice here. Probably more impactful in the 80s and 90s - most successful teams follow these ideas today. Still, a nugget or two of good information.
Part of a group of books (and all about the same size) purchased at my first serious job. Many of these weren't followed, and the group and company were less successful. Worth flipping through this book if you are stressed by your work situation or team relations - there might be a suggestion or two here.
