Review – Managing Agile Projects

Managing Agile Projects

Managing Agile Projects, Sanjiv Augustine. Addison-Wesley, 2005.
Sanjiv answers the question, “What do managers do on an agile team?” to say that they have many functions: team building, alignment, adaptation, and more. I particularly appreciated the chapter on using a “light touch.” Throughout, the author suggests a number of activities that a team can try to build up its capabilities.
