Hohmann, L. "Software Patterns" (MS-Word DRAFT) To appear in the Feb. 98 issue of Software Development.

The key to building effective teams is founded trust. But how can you build trust? In this article I share my approach.

Hohmann, L. "Managing Highly Usable Graphical User Interface Development Efforts" (MS-Word DRAFT) (Aug. 1997).
This article helps form the foundation of a book I am writing for Prentice Hall on the subject "GUIs with Glue". I've distributed this article along with workship notes at Software Development and OOPSLA. This article was also published by Auerbach publications in a three part series. I'd love your comments as I'm still writing the book.

Hohmann, L. "The 'Roman Evaluation' and other techniques for hiring the greatest developers" American Programmer Vol. 10., No. 5., pp. 9-12 (May 1997).
Lots of development managers complain that they can't hire the good developers. I consistently hire great developers. Yeah, I know that sounds like a lot of bragging, but it is true. My team is comprised of some of the greatest developers you'll ever meet (including James Bach, formerly Chief Scientist at ST Labs, Inc., and Bob Muller, internationally reknowned Oracle expert and author of numerous books). So, how do I do it? Read this article to find out. And check out http://www.stlabs.com/testnet.htm for any number of numerous articles written by James.
