Project Principles, Software or Otherwise
- Write things down.
- Get it done, get paid, get out.
- Don't gamble with other people's money,
even if they ask you to.
- The project agenda is the only agenda.
- When the project looks good, we all look good.
- Happy faces, happy voices.
- Always say please and thankyou.
- Listen to everyone, but one person decides.
- Agree to disagree.
- Give the credit, take the blame.
- Praise in public, criticize in private.
- Learn something from every experience.
- Have both a living and a life.
These are all pretty obvious,
yet easy to forget at times.
That's why the first one says "Write things down."
