There is so much noise and hand-wringing about the one true agile framework that it is impossible to make sense of things. Sadly that puts our community in a position where it looks like we’re more interested in seeing everyone lose than helping anyone succeed. It also puts leaders in a terrible position of having to wade through the online sludge of before trying to make a choice.

There are so many sources that I draw on for any given engagement with a client, but I thought it might be interesting to maybe put a list of books that I feel impacted me the most. This won’t be completely exhaustive, but hopefully gives you some more material if you’re looking to expand your knowledge or skills.
