"Leffingwell's Hammer" : any idea of merit, regardless of the intentions or awareness of the inventor, will inevitably and irrecoverably be reduced to a harmful but commercially viable form of the senior executives existing conception and practices.

If you struggle to manage internal software development you have little hope of managing outsourced development.
