A great resource for an inexperienced manager
I participated in several projects and could try leading some initiatives. They all were using a traditional methodology. Well, on my projects, I wasn't using any real method, rather what I learned on the fly.
The audiobook introduces agile project management from the basics. It provides a clear overview of Agile principles centered around the customer and provides more effective cooperation among the team. What I like is that it encourages and gives more opportunities to the best teammates.
Examples of free software tools are great sources, and Asana seems to fit most to my personal projects.
The bonus checklist is a great help even on projects that I will do mostly myself because it reminds me of all critical aspects.

A fairly comprehensive introduction to modern PM
A fairly comprehensive introduction (it is only an intro) to modern Project Management. The book's a little heavy on the American football analogies which gets a little tedious, but on the whole it's pretty good.

Pros and cons of each framework
One size does not fit all. The same is true for projects. The author describes the advantages and disadvantages of each framework. I think that Scrum with a Kanban board is the best option for my projects. The examples of more and less successful projects in chapter 9 are also helpful when choosing the right framework.

So Important audiobook.
The audiobook was so knowledgeable and very important for the beginners who will do the work at the project site. In this audiobook, agile project management was described so easily. And also done a brief discussion about methodology and quality control.

Ready, Set, Agile!
I like not only the brand name of the book (the author wrote another book on project management) but also their creativity. He created a framework and named three stages of the overall project and each cycle as Ready, Set, Agile! This reference to the sport may help to memorize the essential aspects of project work.

Fits all levels of PM
The audiobook will serve all levels of project managers, both employees, and entrepreneurs. I like how the book is structured and the attached bonus checklist. Agile is now mostly used methodology and will dominate in the future. The role of a project manager is different in agile than in waterfall and in agile it’s usually called differently.

The bonus checklist alone is worth the price
The checklist is a practical guide. I printed it and look at it every morning to select one aspect for that day to work on. This makes my projects agile even when I don’t use agile methodology :)

Make your team great
The author emphasizes teamwork which I think is the most critical on every project. He says a good team challenges each other to be their best. So it’s not only about the project manager’s leadership skills but rather the team that they are part of. The agile project is about the people involved and their interactions. A superstar alone can’t do much.
