Dorset House Peopleware Productive Projects and Teams

Description

As we write these words, the first edition of Peopleware hasjust passed its tenth anniversary.I When the book came out all those years ago, we certainlythought we were done, but time and our correspondence and e-mailhave convinced us otherwise. We seem to have been nominatedto serve as custodians of an international clearinghouse for peopleware-related developments. Readers have written to us fromall corners of the earth to report on new kinds of teamicide,attacks by the Furniture Police and counterattacks thereon, and allsorts of managerial silliness about visual supervision, noise in theworkplace, and motivational schemes that demotivate. They havealso written to tell us of organizations where work is so much fanthat employees feel sheepish about cashing their paychecks, orwhere project managers have succeeded in forming stable andhealthy little communities around the work.We found, too, that we had much more to say on the subject.Our own experience with peopleware matters continued to growthrough project consulting and work with client managers.Slowly but surely, the giant, Holgar Dansk, began to stir again forus. (You're going to have to read Chapter 26 to understand that.)When the giant beckons, you ignore him at your peril. And soevolved this second edition.Rereading Peopleware with somewhat older eyes has shownus something that wasn't so evident at the time of first publication: The book is not so much a collection of essays (that's whatwe called it in the original Preface) as it is a book of stories.Each of the principles we set out to describe has its story. Thereis also a story in the way these principles affected us in our owncareers.Not told in the original work is the story of Peoplewareitself: how the book was written and what impact it had on itsauthors. Peopleware, a book about partnership, was written by apartnership. It is a book about teams and was itself put togetherby a team, including authors, editors, artists, and draft readers.Most of all, the making of the book illustrated one of its mostessential themes: that owning part of a good work somehow feelsbetter than owning all of it. This may seem like an odd notion,but if you've ever been part of a well-formed team or a harmoniouswork group, you'll know what we mean.For the second edition, we have added a Part VI and madeonly a few, minor changes to the first five parts. We found onlyone instance of a new work practice that forced us to revisit theconclusions of the first edition. That change was the introductionof voice-mail. In the original Chapter 11, we tried to persuadeyou that interrupting yourself to answer the telephone in the mid^tof a thought-intensive task was an exercise in frustration and lostproductivity. You seem to have agreed
