More value from less work. An unstoppable business revolution is under way-and it is Agile. Companies that embrace Agile Management learn to connect everyone and everything . . . all the time. They can deliver instant, intimate, frictionless value on a large scale. Agile began emerging many decades ago, but truly took off in the software development industry. Sparking dramatic improvements in quality, innovation, and speed-to-market, the Agile movement is now spreading quickly throughout all kinds of companies. It enables a team, a unit, or an enterprise to nimbly adapt and upgrade products and services to meet rapidly changing technology and customer needs. And the process is applicable anywhere-companies don't need to be born Agile, like Spotify. Even centuries-old Barclays is making the transition and reaping rewards. Filled with examples from every sector, The Age of Agile helps readers: Master the three laws of Agile Management (team, customer, network) * Embrace the new mindset * Overcome constraints * Employ meaningful metrics * Make the entire organization Agile * And more With this breakthrough approach, even global giants can learn to act entrepreneurially. Their future depends on it.

Quotes

  • Tamara Dzuverhas quoted5 years ago
    Agile practitioners share a mindset that work should, in principle, be done in small, autonomous, cross-functional teams working in short cycles on relatively small tasks and getting continuous feedback from the ultimate customer or end-user. Big and complex problems are resolved by descaling them into tiny, manageable pieces.
  • Tamara Dzuverhas quoted5 years ago
    It was the Agile movement that figured out how to create an environment that fostered consistent high performance in its teams. If there were a Nobel Prize for management, which there isn’t, and if there were any justice in the world
  • Tamara Dzuverhas quoted5 years ago
    1. Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software.
