 "LOVE YOUR JOB, BUT NEVER FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR COMPANY
 BECAUSE YOU  NEVER KNOW WHEN THE COMPANY STOPS LOVING YOU"

“Our assets walk out of the door each evening. We have to make sure that they come back the next morning.”

by Narayana Murthy

Though the times may have changed
And friends come and go
One thing will always stay the same
I'm the nicest SOB you'll ever know.

Of course I’m no skitty
But you’ve always known me to be witty.
And though my bark is not the loudest
My bite has always been the deepest.

I’m not done writing codes
But maybe I’ll venture to poems
After all they’re just some words
If they rhyme then it’s work compiling.

So I guess this is my sayonara
To all those I knew and pawned in DOTA.

Here's a good article by Stacey Dickenson on IT project collaboration. I hope you will find it useful.

The word collaborate according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary means "to work jointly with others or together especially in an intellectual endeavor." For today's IT projects, this definition translates to:

• More than one team is involved
• Individual contributors represent diverse job disciplines
• Teams are located in several different physical locations
• Communication often occurs across multiple time zones

If someone were to ask you, "How’s collaboration working within your IT team on your current project?" What would you say? Would you describe it as: Excellent? OK? Not good at all? What if more specific questions were asked? For example, do you believe expectations across teams are clearly defined, communicated, and met? Does the work you receive from dependencies (teams or individuals) meet agreed upon acceptance criteria and timelines?
