Anyone looking to implement Agile within their organization could do worse than turning to this book for help. It has a solid plan and walks you through the many possible pitfalls to avoid while giving you the information you need to implement using best practices that will "stick".

I particularly enjoyed the approach of Adapting what exists with what already works for you - which is somewhat against what too many purists are preaching. I also believe in the adapting process since every show more business and every industry has their own constraints which need to be included in whatever format/ flavor you decide to introduce.

I found this to be a light refresher although there was nothing new for me. I have been running Agile Projects and Teams as well as doing some Coaching for almost 5 years now so I've come across most of what was discussed.

Still, it was a worthwhile read.

Great book on how to introduce agile practices into organisations. The book breathes agile, as it uses agile to become more agile. It supports using agile techniques to continuously improve your organisation, and deliver more value to customers.

I would recommend to anybody who is interested in applying agile, and who dares to eat his/her own dogfood by using agile techniques to become more agile.
