Developer Clear requirements, ready design, assigned tasks
from PM, layer-specific, much relying on testers

tools
Business Middle layer, documented use cases, required
Analyst completed specification sign-off, loose engagement
during implementation
Architecture Early involvement, not involved in implementation,
available on request
Manager Boss, who knows everything and manages with top-
down command-and-control style
4. 2. Foundation for transition
of roles: Success Factors
(1)
We put the client in the center
e.g. customer first instead of boss/hierarchy/department
e.g. the customer pays the salary
We are result oriented
e.g. KPI Customer Satisfaction:
http://www.swissitbridge.ch/lang-en/advantages/314-customer-satisfaction.html
We are professionals: ACE
Attitude:
e.g. developers code perfectly and fix bugs immediately; team work like this
presentation, managers thrust the team and the teams keep the commitment.
Competence:
e.g. I can communicate (soft skills) and code with minimial bugs (hard skills)
Enthusiasm
e.g. the joy to try new things, to achieve results together with the team
5. 2. Foundation for transition of
roles: Success Factors (2)
We are a learning organisation
e.g. customer feedback, yammer, SIB University
We communicate openly
e.g. we give kind feedback, career development, finding out the true reason
We work hard an celebrate success
e.g. team building, team budget
We act with integrity and mutual respect
1. e.g. reporting correct hours, informing the customer immediately
