What to read after BE Agile?

No matter where you are in your knowledge of "agile" this book is for you.

If you're new to agile, you will love this book. You'll learn what agile is and ways you can apply it to how you think and how you work. You'll find this book crammed full of new approaches to dealing with complex situations that will bring joy to your life.

Being new to agile many of the concepts and models presented here will be new to you and may sound a little strange, some of them can be counter intuitive. If you feel a gut-level response that a concept is simply wrong and could never work for you, then it might just be the concept you need the most. That said, my suggestion would be to start with the concepts that feel the most valuable and easily adopted, they will get you started and help you to build confidence in your ability to adopt agility.

If you've heard about agile but are unsure what it means to you, you will love this book. You'll find new levels of understanding for all the tools and techniques you're already familiar with and hopefully a few new ones as well that will add new strings to your bow. I hope reading this book brings joy to your life.

Maybe you're a people leader or a project manager and you're hearing that there are no managers and no projects in agile. You might be concerned about your future and worried that your role will no longer exist when your company adopts agile. Rest assured, leadership is still required, and project management skills are still valuable in agile organisations, you just apply them differently. The best thing you can do is to learn as much as you an about agile approaches, tools and techniques.

If you're experienced with agile you will love this book. You'll find that the experiences shared and the ways the tools and techniques are explained brings new levels of nuance that you can use to uplift your agile practice, so it brings even more joy to your life.

As an experienced agile practitioner, most of the concepts and models will be familiar, I hope I am able to expose a new dimension for at least some of them that helps you to enhance your practice by seeing them differently through another view of their underlying intent.
