This book examines agile approaches from a management perspective
by focusing on matters of strategy, implementation, organization
and people. It examines the turbulence of the marketplace and
business environment in order to identify what role agile
management has to play in coping with such change and uncertainty.
Based on observations, personal experience and extensive research,
it clearly identifies the fabric of the agile organization, helping
managers to become agile leaders in an uncertain world. The book
opens with a broad survey of agile strategies, comparing and
contrasting some of the major methodologies selected on the basis
of where they lie on a continuum of ceremony and formality, ranging
from the minimalist technique-driven and software engineering
focused XP, to the pragmatic product-project paradigm that is Scrum
and its scaled counterpart SAFe (R), to the comparatively
project-centric DSDM. Subsequently, the core of the book focuses on
DSDM, owing to the method's comprehensive elaboration of program
and project management practices. This work will chiefly be of
interest to all those with decision-making authority within their
organizations (e.g., senior managers, line managers, program,
project and risk managers) and for whom topics such as strategy,
finance, quality, governance and risk management constitute a daily
aspect of their work. It will, however, also be of interest to
those readers in advanced management or business administration
courses (e.g., MBA, MSc), who wish to engage in the management of
agile organizations and thus need to adapt their skills and
knowledge accordingly.
