In the rush for success and survival, many computer professionals have forgotten the back -to-basic values of communication and cooperation. Productivity Sand Traps & Tar Pits shows how small-scale improvements in the workplace can improve long-term productivity. Providing real-life examples of what makes teamwork succeed or fail, the author reveals ways to improve management's treatment of computer professionals as well as ways to encourage effective work habits. A list of commonsense principles -- matched by Machiavellian counterpoints -- and an innovative team-based planning technique fill out the text, providing new ways to think about and plan for productivity improvement. Writing in a light and anecdotal style, the author, a former Director of IS at CBS Records, shows readers how to -- cope with office politics -- emphasize solutions, not witch hunts -- acknowledge what you don't know -- select technology based on need, not hype -- coordinate planning to speed progress -- give priority to effectiveness over efficiency -- adopt behavior principles to improve personal well-being
