Features: 8Manage originates from years of complex software battlefield experience. It understands the main contradiction in current software engineering management—the primary objects of software production and management are intellectual achievements, yet American and global software management and engineering science are based on the foundation of industrial-era physical product management. From a completely new "human-centered" perspective, it forms tools for commitment management, consequence management, and self-management, making existing management tools more capable of ensuring large-scale software projects maintain rigorous coordination while allowing space for creative freedom.
The author has 25 years of experience in the U.S. software industry and has led the development of major software projects multiple times. The author identifies a significant blind spot in modern management—no management philosophy, theory, or approach is suitable for managing intellectual workers such as software developers. Even in the United States, a globally leading software industry, companies still implement factory-style, mechanistic management methods for software developers, which is a major flaw for the software industry.
The author points out that the Chinese software industry can pioneer a breakthrough in this blind spot, establishing new standards for software management, without repeating the path taken by the U.S. and India, which involves indirect approaches and catching up head-on. As a result, the author proposes the concept of "8Manage" and elaborates on its specific implementation plan.
