A question from Askhat Urazbayev: “What methodology of project management do you consider optimal and why? (examples - agile, XP, scrum) "?
')
Answer:
The methodologies indicated are flexible. Each has its own pros and cons. Therefore, the best methodology will be ideal for a specific project. If we take it at all, then there are no ideal methodologies.
When we had one super guru in the project, and another newcomer, the XP methodology with its pair development and in conjunction with TDD (development through testing) was perfect. At first, development was slow, but the speed increased further. The tests created at the beginning did not allow the novice to make critical and ideological mistakes. And the experience of developing with the guru gave the necessary skills and the right look at the development.
When working on an existing project, where the number of developers is at least one and a half times less than necessary. With frequent releases and changes in the composition of the developers approached SCRUM, but slightly modified. During the sprint it was possible to add work, but at the same time another work was transferred to the next sprint.
In new projects - I use SCRUM, the methodology is simple and convenient and the main thing relates to my internal rhythm.
A question from Arkady Moreynis: “Who will manage the project more successfully: Product Manager, Project Manager, Product Marketing Manager or Technical Leader”?
Answer:
It depends on what is included in the names listed above. In our country, the project manager is understood as both a technical manager and a business leader.
The next moment - what to call more successful? More money? More traffic? Stability? (if we are talking about online projects).
Knowing this data you can answer this question.
If we speak from the point of view of business success (that is, the profit should grow), then the “Product Manager” will manage the project more successfully. The technical manager will be more difficult, because the project can be successful, while remaining completely technically not perfect. In the project, the main thing is to understand the wishes of potential consumers and satisfy them as much as the need for a project is above the annoyance of inconvenience. In addition, around any project you need to develop a “myth” and you need to start from the very beginning. In the future, the “myth” will serve as a source of customers (approximately a year or two after launch). In fact, the “myth” is the fashionable word “brand”.
Question from Anton Nosik: “How does an editor differ from a programmer?”
The programmer uses the editor to write their programs. :) Joke.
Seriously, the editor (in the sense of the chief editor) is essentially the product manager for the media publication. The person who determines the main directions of product development, the programmer determines the technical development (what needs to be done now in order to remain modern and fashionable in six months or a year).
Any more questions? Ask :)
