A fascinating read, thank you for sharing. These gems of knowledge are what I love HN for. >This paper outlines the work I reviewed that made it clear to me that ‘people’ really are a first-order, and not incidental, project success driver, the characteristics I currently use as predictors. My personal experience is similar - methodologies can make things incrementally better for a team, but cannot do anything with the ‘people’ factor.
