"Stand Back and Deliver" Yes, the book is in the works. We (Pollyanna Pixton, Niel Nickolaisen, Todd Little and Kent McDonald) are under contract with Addison Wesley to publish a book on tools for leading in an agile manner. Publication release in early 2009. Book Abstract What do leaders need to do to optimize agile effectiveness in their organization? This 'How To' book provides leaders with proven, immediately usable frameworks and processes that leaders can use to deliver results. The authors make extensive use of their own hands-on experience and case studies to engage readers and provide a roadmap for success. Book Summary Today's global and complex markets have narrow market windows, fast-paced cycle times, and low tolerance for mistakes. Companies have discovered that agile methods can address these needs. But how do leaders ensure they are delivering the right results? How do leaders ensure the success of agile implementations? In this dynamic environment, leaders ask: "How do I keep my company from spiraling into chaos?" "Are we doing the right things wrong?" and "Are we simply doing the wrong things?" In this book, the authors offer a set of tools leaders can use to address their company's immediate needs for leading change: strategy, deciding what the right thing is to do and when, and how to manage risk and deliver complex and uncertain projects. Combining collaboration with these tools, leaders create organizations that embrace change. With the direction defined and communicated, leaders stand back and guide the organization to deliver external and internal results. Reviewer's Login We are looking for reviewers.
