Managing Global Development Risk

I couldn’t be happier to announce on Consider the Source that two of my colleagues and friends at TPI, Jim Hussey and Steve Hall, now have their labor of love in bookstores: Managing Global Development Risk.

Managing_global_development_risk2_2There are tons of books on offshoring and global services delivery. Some address up-and-coming offshoring countries that have the education, labor arbitrage and political stability to move your organization to the next level. Some help you define your service delivery framework, others tell you how to conduct an RFP process, and yet others guide you in managing your sourcing relationships. However, this is the first book that I’ve seen that is a resource and reference tool to apply project management to an offshore component.

Overseeing a project management team in which some members are offshore is much different than traditional project management. This book is a practical “how to,” offering sound project management principles to help the software development managers to best execute development when its people are all over the globe. I’d recommend Managing Global Development Risk to anyone in the sourcing community that wants the tools, techniques, and knowledge necessary to achieve project success with offshore resources.

Congratulations Jim and Steve on a job well done!
