Almost every software developer and manager has to deal with projects characterized by poor staff, plan and budget, i.e. projects doomed to fail.

Edward Yordon's book is a guide to solving the following problems: survival in projects doomed to failure; achieving optimal agreements during negotiations; personnel management and prioritization; selection of tools and technologies; determining the moment when it is time to exit the project. Edward Yordon applies his unique technology and managerial intuition to the worst case scenarios of software projects, showing how to maximize your chances of success, or at least get your career out of the woods. Step by step, Yordon goes through all stages of the project life cycle, teaching managers and developers how to deal with customers correctly and make optimal use of available resources, including people, tools, processes and technology. Learn to show the necessary flexibility during negotiations, set meaningful priorities and... exit the project on time. If you've ever needed to do the impossible, The Kamikaze Way is your book.
