All-New Insights from the Authors
of Peopleware—
Perfect for a Lunch-Time Training Session
About the DVD
Here's all-new advice from Peopleware
authors DeMarco and Lister on how to make teams form
and perform as never before.
In this hour-long DVD, these gifted presenters offer
their unique perspectives on how a true team is greater
than the sum of its individual parts. Such a team—a
jelled team—is a group of people so strongly focused
toward a common goal and so highly productive, they
are destined for success.
In such a team, there's a true sense of community
with no destructive competition within the team. Learn
new ways to help teams jell and prevent teamicide.
Nobody makes more sense on this important subject
than DeMarco and Lister. Jell your team today!
Reviews
"If you want to create effective project
teams, not just talk about them, you'll want this
video. . . . If this tape doesn't get [your staff]
debating, rethinking, and improving the way they
work in groups, they're probably dead."
—Janet Ruhl
author of The Programmer's Survival Guide
"a solid introduction to the role
of teams in changing organizations. . . . concrete
advice on how a manager can contribute to the
success of a team and why that support is essential.
. . . valuable insights into why teams are so
important to the success of our organizations,
and how we can help them to emerge and 'jell.'

to manage, lead, and participate in more successful
teams."

"DeMarco and Lister clearly understand the
human element of software development. Productive
Teams presents their collective wisdom regarding
the very difficult problem of managing a diverse
team of very human programmers."
"Fans of Peopleware (as I am) will
enjoy Productive Teams. The interplay between
Tom and Tim is a pleasure to see and hear, and,
as usual, their insights hit home."
