“ Mike Cohn has put together a fantastic book of guidelines to not only start the Scrum im-
plementation, but to turn your entire corporation into an agile community. I have already
implemented many of the recommendations included in this text and have seen a positive
influence on the support for Scrum within our organization.”
—James Tischart, CSM, CSP, CTFL, Vice President, Product Delivery, Mx Logic, Inc
“ In Succeeding with Agile, Mike Cohn has scoured and sifted through the collective experi-
ence and lessons of not only scores of different projects, teams, and organizations from his
own agile experience, but also from the experience of countless others. He provides real-
world stories from the trenches, useful data and studies, and invaluable insights into what
has and hasn’t worked well when adopting, adapting, and scaling Scrum. What I like best
about the book is where Mike provides wisdom on several different alternatives and ap-
proaches and the circumstances in which each is most suitable.”
— Brad Appleton, Internal Agile Consultant at a Fortune 100 telecommunications
company
“ I believe Mike Cohn’s book will answer many questions and issues that people and teams
struggle with in terms of how to improve collaboration, communication, quality, and team
productivity. I especially appreciate and agree with Mike’s statement that ‘there can be
no end state in a process that calls for continuous improvement.’ This is hard work and it
requires persistence, teamwork, and good people. I plan to make Succeeding with Agile man-
datory reading within my organization, just like we did with his book on Agile Estimating
and Planning.”
—Scott Spencer, Vice President Engineering, First American CoreLogic, Inc.
“ Mike Cohn has done it again. This comprehensive study of agile software development
provides numerous techniques and methodologies to achieve success. I enthusiastically rec-
ommend this book to anyone who wants to start using agile or wants to improve their
software development process.”
— Benoit Houle, Senior Development Manager, BioWare (a Division of Electronic Arts)
“ There’s no doubt that Mike Cohn’s new book will become the reference on how to run
software projects with Scrum. The book is very carefully crafted and avoids the trap of giv-
ing you the one, simple recipe to all your problems. Though mainly centered on Scrum,
Mike draws on various other techniques to produce a handbook that is thorough and
complete. This is not a hasty mash-up supported by just an act of faith or a single experi-
ence. The examples are credible and are a testimony of Mike’s vast personal experience of
the topic.”
— Philippe Kruchten, Professor of Software Engineering at University of British
Columbia
“ This book is packed with useful advice on how your organization can become agile. It’s a
practical handbook for coaches and change agents who face real-world challenges, such as
scaling agile for distributed teams, and who seek to engage with the wider organization. I
love the way that Mike Cohn brings the book to life with stories from situations he’s faced
in the industry and follows up with data and insights from research. I learned something
new from every chapter, and I bet you will too.”
—Rachel Davies, Coauthor of Agile Coaching
