Description
Content

Books about Business Agility, Product Management, Kanban, Lean, and similar topics generally cover theory, values, and principles in some detail, and understandably so. What’s often missing from such books: simple, clear, practical instructions that can help teams achieve desired outcomes. This book leverages the practical experiences of the author, making available no-nonsense, simple advice that can help any team improve.
