But that's not how software development works, and projects that are started in this way often quickly run into difficulties and often end in disaster. In this session, we will show you how to do it right. Which roles need to be defined? What should the process look like? Who is responsible for what and how do we ensure that we do everything right? Numerous practical examples and anecdotes will be used to illustrate how to set up modern, high-quality software development - or how to get an existing project on the right track. ## Speaker ### [David Tielke](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@david-tielke) Consultant at www.David-Tielke.de ## Related talks at this congress - [Why (most) software projects fail silently...](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2025/sessions/669-why-most-software) — Hendrik Lösch - [Modern software architectures](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2025/sessions/540-modern-software) — David Tielke - [Building a Real World Architecture](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2025/sessions/458-building-a-real) — David Tielke - [Resolving technical debts in software architecture](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2025/sessions/523-resolving-technical) — Carola Lilienthal
