The essay is titled "A Really Simple Checklist for Change Readiness
Assessment” Part 2. Planning for change is no very different

the big things to remember that sometimes get forgotten when
dealing with the details of making change happen. Remember

Next Software Process and
Measurement Cast:
The next Software Process and Measurement Cast will feature an
interview with Capers Jones discussing a wide range of software
measurement topics. The interview with Capers was an exciting
and I think you will find the interview an exciting listen.
