This book explores the relationship between project managers and their teams within contemporary information system design, employing control theory to develop quantifiable data on organizational characteristics and performance. The author argues for a perspective of control that incorporates both managerial control and collegial control. Through real-world case studies and statistical analysis, this book sheds light on the complexities of IS design teams and offers a new model for effective management. Emphasizing the importance of strong managerial control alongside team member control, the book challenges traditional top-down management approaches and highlights the significance of self-control and peer influence in team dynamics. The author's findings reveal that successful US design teams exhibit both strong process control by managers and strong outcome control by team members, suggesting a nuanced and collaborative approach to project management.
