--Dave West, CEO, Scrum.org
"Barry, Christiaan, and Johannes have done a magnificent job of accumulating successful experiences and sharing their inspiring stories in this very practical book. They don't shy away from telling it like it is, which is why their proposals are always as useful as they are grounded in reality."
--Henri Lipmanowicz, cofounder, Liberating Structures
Millions of professionals use Scrum. It's the world's #1 approach to agile software development. Even so, by some estimates, over 70% of Scrum adoptions fall flat. Developers find themselves using "Zombie Scrum" processes that look like Scrum, but are slow, lifeless, and joyless. Scrum's just not working for them.
