Agile Books we recommend 

We have read these books in the last few months:
Rachel Davies and Liz Sedley have written a great book about Agile Coaching.
Bas Vodde and Craig Larman wrote Scaling Lean & Agile Development.
We loved Wave Rider from Harisson Owen. A book on creating Self-Organizing teams by the inventor of Open Space
Johanna Rothman (Chair of Agile 2009) has written a book on Project Portfolio management. If you liked Manage It! or behind Closed Doors you know why we think this book looks promising.

Reboot to Team 2.0



Top ten reasons to say"NO" to Reboot to team 2.0

1. My projects effortlessly complete on schedule and in budget every time. 
2. Every team I’ve ever been on has shared vision. 
3. In meetings, we only ever do what will get results. 
4. No one here blames “management”, or anyone else, if they don’t get what they want. 
5. Everybody here shares their best ideas right away. 
6. Ideas are immediately unanimously approved, improved, or rejected by the team. 
7. Action on approved ideas begins immediately. 
8. If we avoid conflict it goes away. 
9. I do everything myself. I don’t need to work with others and I have no customers. 
10.I prefer crisis, inefficiency, and unresolved conflict – it gives me something to talk about over dinner. 

"This was the most useful and life-changing training I've ever attended." 
Pascal Van Cauwenberghe
"The BootCamp was one of the most amazing experience I had, both in professional and private life."
