Turkish Computer Engineers Association(BMO) 2009 stats;

71% of Turkish IT professionals are 0-9 years experienced,

60% of them work in their 3rd job





Average employment in one company ranges between

12 to 30 months



Employee leaves when

she/he’s delivering most value to the company



And the cost...


Cost of searching and hiring the new person

Risk of not being able to find the right person

The cost of errors/faults during orientation

Time and opportunity cost for full capacity




Total cost usually is 4-8 times the monthly cost of the employee



Think about the cost in a whole IT business



Why do people switch their jobs?


Lack of job satisfaction (Insufficient time and people management forces quality to reduce)

Deficient salary scales; the lack of perception that software development is a profession

Lack of personal improvement

No fun, many routines

Management weaknesses

...



Agile Solution?



Autonomy



Mastery



Purpose




Agile processes pushes Autonomy-Mastery-Purpose into the

teams


Motivation, performance, accountability gets better with

self-organization & self-management


Autonomy-Mastery-Purpose



Over80.000

IT projects

Standish Group

Agile processes with focused, energized teams is the universal remedy

to deliver up-to-date, high quality software products
