Tom DeMarco Quotes

Healthy Companies Know That They Have To Allow People To Fail Without Assessing Blame. They Have To Do That Or Else No One Will Take On Anything That's Not A Sure Bet. Healthy Companies Know That, But Culture Of Fear Companies Do Not. In A Culture Of Fear Company, Failure Must Be Rewarded With Punishment. ("What Would We Be, We Sinful Creatures, Without Fear?") A Typical Punishment Is That You Get Fired. If The People Above You Are Insufficiently Powerful, Some Of Them May Get Fired As Well. This Creates A Powerful Incentive To Pass Responsibility For Failure On By Blaming Someone Outside The Organization.
