How can we apply technology to drive business value? For years we've been told that the performance of software delivery teams doesn't matter - that it can't provide a competitive advantage to our companies. Through four years of groundbreaking research to include data collected from the State of DevOps reports conducted with Puppet, Dr. Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble, and Gene Kim set out to find a way to measure software delivery performance - and what drives it - using rigorous statistical methods. This book presents both the findings and the science behind that research, making the information accessible for listeners to apply in their own organizations.

Donors, leaders of nonprofits, and public policy makers usually have the best of intentions to serve society and improve social conditions. But often their solutions fall far short of what they want to accomplish and what is truly needed. Moreover, the answers they propose and fund often produce the opposite of what they want over time. We end up with temporary shelters that increase homelessness, drug busts that increase drug-related crime, or food aid that increases starvation.

What is it about the top tech product companies such as Amazon, Apple, Google, Netflix, and Tesla that enables their record of consistent innovation? Most people think it's because these companies are somehow able to find and attract a level of talent that makes this innovation possible. But the real advantage these companies have is not so much who they hire, but rather how they enable their people to work together to solve hard problems and create extraordinary products.

Look around you. Artificial intelligence is no longer just a futuristic notion. It's here right now - in software that senses what we need, supply chains that "think" in real time, and robots that respond to changes in their environment. Twenty-first-century pioneer companies are already using AI to innovate and grow fast. The bottom line is this: Businesses that understand how to harness AI can surge ahead. Those that neglect it will fall behind. Which side are you on?

She tries to survive in what feels like a heartless and uncaring bureaucracy and to work within a system where no one can get anything done without endless committees, paperwork, and approvals. One day, she is approached by a ragtag bunch of misfits who say they want to overthrow the existing order, to liberate developers, to bring joy back to technology work.

Developing and implementing a strategy is the central task of a leader. A good strategy is a specific and coherent response to - and approach for - overcoming the obstacles to progress. A good strategy works by harnessing and applying power where it will have the greatest effect. Yet, Rumelt shows that there has been a growing and unfortunate tendency to equate Mom-and-apple-pie values, fluffy packages of buzzwords, motivational slogans, and financial goals with “strategy”.

In the groundbreaking new book Accelerate (XLR8), leadership, change-management expert, and best-selling author John Kotter provides a fascinating answer - and a powerful new framework for competing and winning in a world of constant turbulence and disruption. Accelerate (XLR8) vividly illustrates the five core principles underlying the new network system, the eight accelerators that drive it, and how leaders must create urgency in others through role modeling.
Written by: John P. Kotter
Publisher's Summary
In the age of software, will your business dominate and maintain relevance? Or will it become a digital relic?
As tech giants and startups disrupt every market, those who master large-scale software delivery will define the economic landscape of the 21st century, just as the masters of mass production defined the landscape in the 20th. Unfortunately, business and technology leaders are woefully ill-equipped to solve the problems posed by digital transformation. At the current rate of disruption, half of the S&P 500 companies will be replaced in the next 10 years. A new approach is needed.
In Project to Product, value stream network pioneer and technology business leader Dr. Mik Kersten introduces the Flow Framework - a new way of seeing, measuring, and managing software delivery. The Flow Framework will enable your company's evolution from project-oriented dinosaur to product-centric innovator that thrives in the age of software. If you're driving your organization's transformation at any level, this is the audiobook for you.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

More on this topic welcome
Engaging, well written, and delivered. I would like to see a followup with more concrete and specific examples of how things are working. Particularly how to increase flow for the human part of the network involved in delivering value to customers. As well, when implementation environments are complex and diverse, how is flow optimized?

Great book but missing the additional PDF material
The subject matter should concern anybody interested in how to link DevOps to the value generation in your business. Overall the author does a great job of advocating for the Flow Framework though details of how to implement in a large Enterprise are left out. The side-story of the authors visit to the Leipzig BMW plant and the insights gained from that contains more than a little echo of The Phoenix Project (and by implication, The Goal) and for those inspired by that book, this is one more piece of the puzzle on how business delivery needs to transform in the age of software.
However, the fact that the additional material referenced by the narrator is missing from the Audible version greatly reduces the value of the audio version.

If it was Easy Everyone Would be Doing it
It is not hard to find blog posts and articles that chronicle failed digital transformations. This book explains why there seem to be so many examples. To the extent it can, the book also does a reasonable job in pointing the way. But it also makes the point that it is culture, processes and people all aligning to the way the business accrues value that will allow you to possibly transfer from project to product. If it was easy, everyone would be doing it ... successfully. It is not easy.

mostly buzzwords, almost no insight
I struggled on to the end of the book, which I regret. The 'new framework' never came. No epiphanies. All the content in this book could be summarized by 'visualize your work' and ' integrate your tools' as possible by scale.
The whole book uses examples of companies that already are successful in value flow, yet the author claims his ideas are new. Author continually says the old management/production frameworks won't work, but lean and agile underpin all his ideas.
All delivered by the voice of a dramatic used car salesman.

A sales pitch for consulting
While this book contains some substance, it ultimately feels like a sales pitch for consulting services. It provides some high level thoughts and measures on improving software development productivity, relies too heavily on manufacturing for examples (and approach that's been beaten to death in similar books), and doesn't really get into practical implementation.

Calming when your company moves this way
My company is making this move, and leadership isn't communicating well. This book helped to calm me down by seeing that things are going in the right direction, even if the change management isn't being handled well, or at all.
The most important thing to remember that there's very few leaders who do change well, and they'll get components right. Just try to judge things stoically, pragmatically and holistically.
