This book is "adaptive software development", covering "software projects that are especially suitable for intense, highly competitive and frequent changes", in fact, this is a one-sided, the idea of this book should be "adapted to human All activities, large, including social systems, including personal development. "
Biological evolution is explained by Darwin as "survival" (SURVAL OF Fittest), if Darwin is wrong? Now many people believe that "arrival" (ARRIVAL OF FITTEST), that is, the most fundamental fundamental of biological evolution is to collaborate with each other in different biological organizations, and the survival is only on this basis. Sold fine. That is, the emergence of new organisms is because of the mutual cooperation between microbes, instead of the selection of nature. Self-organizational behavior is the fundamental of evolution.
As with all living body, the current human group is also formed in order to work with each other. This means an organization, a project team, not a machine, but a group of organisms with life. How can we regard the people that make up such a vital organism as a labor resource, as a part, when in a dead, machine, linear machine? (Pick a word author - "I hope that the concept of assembling the product on high-speed transfer belt on high-speed conveyor is like a hypnotized robot, and will always go to the side of")
We have to make our team full of vitality, full of creativity. To make our team can adapt to this change in this change, fierce competition, and complex chaos. These two aspects can be achieved by traditional software projects.
Although the slave owner can also lead the slaves to complete the "pyramid", "Great Wall", they can only be applied to long-term stable and unchanging environments, for complex and varied, and require high-speed development limit items, but not adaptable . As the evolution of the organism is not asked by the "nature", it is not calculated by the slave owner, but it is organized by the organisms and adapts to complex and variable environments.
This is the worldview of "adaptive" theory, his three major pieces are - "The Prosperity of Chaotic Edge", "Leaders - Collaboration", "Forecast - Collaborative - Learning".
