Full Description
Remote development has drastically changed the way teams build software. The freedom to work from wherever and possibly whenever has increased flexibility, but these benefits have not come without growing pains. The people managing this new type of team have worked tirelessly to adapt existing practices to this new, unfamiliar environment.
The good news is you don't have to go through it alone. Authors Carleton DiLeo and Jennifer Reyes draw from two decades of combined experience building and managing highly-effective remote teams. You'll see how to set up, manage, and maintain your team. These ideas have been tested, boiled down, and refined over the years into an easy-to-understand series of steps.
