Title: Success or failure, your choice
Review: Following the guidelines in this book to attain at least repeatable capabilities can make the difference between failing or succeeding. A good example is the failures of one dot com after another during the past year. At one time the term Prestigious Dot Com evoked envy, not it's an oxymoron. Why this happened in a large part is because the cowboy mentality, and to be fair, there were a fair share of "cowgirls" who can take blame, that said we don't need no stinkin' processes. Well, guess they were wrong. What's sad is this book gives a good benchmark set to compare your capabilities and is ignored or badmouthed. What's sadder is the people who scream the loudest about how terrible the CMM is are the ones who cannot speak intelligently about what it's really about. If you want to be an exception and succeed in this competitive environment you own it to yourself to check this book out. Or fail. Your choice.
