Jurgen Appelo The Netherlands, @ISM eCompany
Jurgen Appelo is Chief Information Officer at ISM eCompany, recently rated as the #1 fastest growing technology company in The Netherlands. He leads a horde of 50 software developers, development managers, project managers, consultants, quality assurance managers, service managers and kangaroos, some of which he hired accidentally. Jurgen is primarily interested in software engineering, quality improvement and complexity theory, from a manager’s perspective. He is trying to write a book about this, and he keeps track of it on his blog (www.noop.nl). He has already published a number of papers and articles in several magazines, like Dr. Dobb’s, Software Quality Professional, Methods & Tools, The Software Practitioner, StickyMinds, Software Development Network, Computable and Automatisering Gids. However, sometimes he puts it all aside to do some intensive programming himself, or to spend some time on his ever-growing collection of science fiction and fantasy literature.
