Description
Pragmatic Insights for Successfully
Managing Your Unique Agile Team or Organization In many organizations, management is the
biggest obstacle to successful Agile development. Unfortunately,
reliable guidance on Agile management has been scarce indeed. Now,
leading Agile manager Jurgen Appelo fills that gap, introducing a
realistic approach to leading, managing, and growing your Agile
team or organization. Writing for current managers and
developers moving into management, Appelo shares insights that are
grounded in modern complex systems theory, reflecting the intense
complexity of modern software development. Appelo’s
Management 3.0 model recognizes that today’s
organizations are living, networked systems; that you can’t
simply let them run themselves; and that management is primarily
about people and relationships. Management 3.0 doesn’t offer
mere checklists or prescriptions to follow slavishly: rather it
deepens your understanding of how organizations and Agile teams
work, and gives you tools to solve your own problems. Drawing on
his extensive experience as an Agile manager and trainer, Appelo
identifies the most valuable elements of Agile management, and
helps you improve each of them. Coverage includes Getting beyond “Management 1.0” command
hierarchies, and “Management 2.0” fads Understanding how complexity and non-linearity affect your
organization–and why the best-laid plans so often fail Giving teams the care and feeding they need to grow on their
own Defining boundaries and constraints, so teams can succeed in
alignment with company goals Anticipating issues teams won’t or can’t resolve by
themselves Sowing the seeds for a culture of software craftsmanship Keeping your people active, creative, motivated, and
energized Helping teams develop crucial missing skills and
disciplines Crafting organizational networks and communication flows that
promote success Making change desirable–and making stagnation
painful Implementing continuous improvement that actually works Thoroughly pragmatic–and never
trendy–Jurgen Appelo’s Management 3.0 will help
you bring greater agility to any software organization, team, or
project.
