  • The Project Doctor Is In: The Importance Of Routine Project Health Checks
    11/8/2018

This is an interesting idea, as a software project has no body, no apparent vital signs to measure, and has no other tangible qualities one would attribute to “life." A project is born, it grows, it consumes resources, and has a finite end usually marked by retiring support or through abrupt termination. Inorganic, incorporeal, but it is indeed living, and it requires proper and routine check-ups to keep the project headed toward success. As a doctor performs a health check on patients, so to must project leaders check-up on their living projects.
