Weinberg, James Bach, Naomi Karten, and a group of successful software consultants present powerful ideas on how software engineers and managers can amplify their professional effectiveness--as individuals, as members of teams, and as members of organizations. The collected essays address diverse topics in personal empowerment, interpersonal interaction, mastering projects, and changing the organization.

The idea for this collection arose out of a brainstorming session for the inaugural Amplifying Your Effectiveness Conference (AYE), in 2000, for which the contributing authors served as hosts. Like the book, this annual conference is designed to help technical people become more effective individually, within a team, and within an organization.

The variety of techniques and perspectives represented in the book will help you amplify your effectiveness--whether or not you attend the live event.
