General Meeting

Location: Auditorium Date: Monday, October 2 Topic 1: When Teams Grow Richard Underwood http://www.RichardUnderwood.com Richard will relate his experiences leading a team that grew from one to sixteen developers in five years. The application also grew and went through three major changes in architecture while the team added a constant flow of new features. You can’t grow a team by adding more of the same. The structure of the team and the procedures it uses must change drastically to accommodate different needs. We will look at: Different team models Communication within the team Coding standards and documentation The design bottleneck How much control? Managing change and risk The application is an OLAP database for Performance Measurement used by Fortune 500 companies around the world.
