“Progressive Steps: A Novel Approach to Effective Software Upgrades” (ISBN 146649395X), a novel by Craig Poulson and Alison Brown, weaves narrative prose and features sympathetic characters through a story that involves a unique IT theory.
Worried that his relationships with family members are becoming distant, Chuck Strauss was really looking forward to the Thanksgiving holiday as a much-needed time of renewal. However, when he is told that he will have to work through the holiday to implement a new upgrade, his hopes are dashed. Chuck and his co-worker Jess begin crafting a plan for a more strategic, user-centric implementation approach that would also free up more time for them and their coworkers. They have to develop the strategy and figure out how to present it to their conservative company director in time to save their Thanksgiving holiday.
“The lessons I’ve learned in more than 25 years in the IT implementation industry should be shared with others,” says Poulson. “My book suggests that taking small, incremental steps is more effective than the traditional mega-project approach.”
Intended as an engaging and compelling story in the same vein as Eliyahu M. Goldratt’s book “The Goal,” the novel is aimed at IT consultants, managers, analysts and other professionals.
“Progressive Steps: A Novel Approach to Effective Software Upgrades” is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels.
About the Authors: Craig Poulson has worked as a software architect for more than 20 years and has been involved in many IT implementations. Alison Brown has been writing for a decade. “Progressive Steps” is the pair’s first published collaboration.
