Agile Adoption Patterns: A Roadmap to Organizational Success

Agile projects center on the delivery of business value. This tenet is where Amr

Elssamadissy focuses his attention in presenting roughly 25 patterns that will

enable readers to succeed with agile methods. By examining recurring problems

or challenges in implementation, the author presents proven solutions and in

so doing teaches the reader to take agile to the next level. By using the pattern

format, the author is presenting these agile practices in their proper context and

guiding the reader in understanding the why and how behind using each

practice.

The book is meant to be the first book out there that addresses adoption and

adaptation at the granularity of a development practice, and not a methodology

or process. It is also meant to be the only book in this area that inverts the

discussion - that is it discusses software development problems first, and from

there move toward the agile practices that help you successfully overcome

these problems.
