In this week’s Software Process and Measurement Cast will feature three columns. our essay on empathy. Coaching is a key tool to help individuals and teams reach peak performance. One of the key attributes of a good coach is empathy. Critical to the understanding the role that empathy plays in coaching is understanding the definition of empathy. As a coach, if you can’t connect with those you are coaching you will not succeed. Let’s learn how to become more empathic.
Our second column features the return of the Software Sensei, Kim Pries. Kim looks at how we might apply David Allen’s concepts for Getting Things Done (after the book of the same name). Please note the comments reflect the Software Sensei’s interpretation of how Allen’s work might be applied to software development.
Anchoring the cast this week is Gene Hughson bringing an entry from the Form Follows Function Blog. Today Gene discussed his essay, Changing Organizations Without Changing People. Gene proclaims, “Changing culture is impossible if you claim to value one thing but your actions demonstrate that you really don’t.”
