Stories convey more than just knowledge. They touch, inspire, and create closeness. Stories reveal something of ourselves and can thus guide us when we encounter similar situations. In this book, 30 authors share their experiences from the world of Agile. They are experienced Product Owners, Scrum Masters, executives, Agile Coaches, consultants, and organizational developers. They tell true stories from their everyday work and personal lives: about the first steps and tensions in teams, conducive and obstructive leadership, losses and fears, amazing developments, clear values, and attitudes. These stories invite us, the readers, to learn from each other as human beings. With the purchase of this book, you support Flying Hope e.V.
