6 Software Development Pitfalls to Avoid

Technology and product delivery leaders are under ever-increasing pressure to ship innovative solutions while searching for ways to increase delivery capacity, improve predictability, and minimize risky decisions. However, they find themselves grappling with a persistent challenge: anti-patterns.

So how can organizations overcome these counterproductive tendencies to boost productivity and achieve faster time-to-market?

Join Deric Merino, Director of Solution Consulting, and Katharine Chajka, Senior Product Manager of Flow Methodology, as they discuss:
  • 6 common anti-patterns in enterprise software delivery
  • How to spot these anti-patterns in your organization
  • How Planview helps customers replace these practices with more constructive processes
