Our purpose in this paper is to describe “typical” programmer reactions to various elements of PPT. We do this from the vantage point of having conducted well over 100 training seminars around the world, in which approximately 1500 programmers and analysts were exposed to structured programming, structured design, the chief programmer team concept, and so forth. It is our strong belief that if management can anticipate their staff's reaction to these new techniques, they should be able to alter their “selling” technique so that PPT will be presented in the most favorable possible manner: without doing this, there is a good chance that PPT will ultimately fail in the organization, and die a slow death of atrophy.
