Publisher Description:

The Agile movement provides real, actionable answers to the question that keeps many company leaders awake at night: How do we stay successful in a fast-changing and unpredictable world? Agile has already transformed how modern companies build and deliver software. This practical book demonstrates how entire organizations--from product managers and engineers to marketers and executives--can put Agile to work.

Author Matt LeMay explains Agile in clear, jargon-free terms and provides concrete and actionable steps to help any team put its values and principles into practice. Examples from a wide variety of organizations, including small nonprofits and global financial enterprises, bring to life the on-the-ground realities of Agile across industries and functions.

  • Use Agile to address your organization's specific needs and goals
  • Take customer centricity from theory into practice
  • Stop wasting time in "report and critique" meetings and start making better decisions
  • Create a harmonious cycle of learning, collaborating, and delivering
  • Learn from Agile experts at companies like IBM, Spotify, and Coca-Cola
