Don’t bother

I have managed to listen to approx 5 minutes of this book, the narration is so awful I couldn’t bring myself to continue

Must have book.

If you are an old school project manager, this is the book for you to understand this new style of PM. I was skeptical for a long time, because I did not know about it. Now after listening to this book on my morning runs helped me expand my frame of reference about agile. Now I am looking in ways to use agile methodology in construction. Must have book.

Nice information - easy to listen to

This was a good audio book with some good information. The narrator was easy to listen to and the information flowed smoothly. I will keep this one as a good reference item. Enjoyed how you could jump from chapter to chapter, or go back to the start of a particular chapter to re-listen to it.

It was exactly what I needed

The company for which I work is adopting the Agile Project Management system. Although I am not personally involved in project management, I thought this would give me an idea of Agile.

Simple, effective and useful entryway to Agile

There are a ton of books out there describing agile work, but few can put it together in a comprehensive, simple and easy to use format. After listening the book, I am no expert, but what I have is a foundational grasp of what needs to be done, what I need to learn and a guide I can rely on. This is the entryway, more in depth reading is required if you plan to continue in the agile world but this is a way to get your feet wet quickly.

Best guide

Agile project management is basically a guide to structuring management in a non-traditional way. I'm kind of struggling to describe it. It stresses openness, flexibility, interaction, etc. Its basically a guide to an alternative management style that can be VERY useful to businesses in providing their products or services.
