The Age of Agile unpacks the groundbreaking ideas and practices that are remaking the very foundations of business. Agile isn’t simply a new “process” to be grafted onto current management practice. It is a fundamentally different concept — a new mindset — about the structure of your company . . . and how you must operate to succeed in today’s world. Reporting from the frontlines, author Steve Denning takes you deep into the Agile management revolution. He provides specific, inspiring examples of how some of today’s enlightened companies are leveraging the power of Agile, including firms such as: Airbnb, Amazon, Etsy, Facebook, Google, Lyft, Menlo Innovations, Saab, Samsung, Spotify, Tesla, Uber, and Warby Parker.
