These guys have no special expertise in this either. They haven't (mostly) worked on high performance programming teams or led successful companies or launched killer products. But if you give them a chance they'll try to sell you 'methodologies' on all these and more.
They make their living selling ill thought out ideas to clueless middle managers. What makes them experts in "how your work fits into a whole?"
Lol getting a masters in electrical engineering and having written forgotten books on design patterns makes you an expert in how to 'master programming' and work in high performance teams? News to me!
You understand Booch did not write the master programming list referenced by the OP. (No doubt you will edit to remove that erroneous reference but shrug)
Saying Kent Beck, Ken Schwaber, Jeff Sutherland etc has not led successful companies or worked in high performance programming teams he he he. That's class.
