About the Book

“Simplifies game-changing concepts from the tech industry, bringing them to life with tangible examples and making them applicable to all industries and organisations. It is an impactful and accessible book full of practical tips that will have immediate and significant impact. It’s refreshing and inspiring to see that values of the author coming through so strongly, and the emphasis on personal leadership and self improvement is empowering.” -- Claire Fox, Chief Operating Officer UNICEF UK

“This book was a joy to read. Ines has a wonderful style of writing and uses stories, quotes and tips to great effect! The audience of this books is wider than Salesforce and includes anyone wanting to build great products with teams of people.” -- Seb Chakraborty, Group CTO Goco (GoCompare)

“Ines translates her deep and broad experience and wisdom of Agile concepts into workable tips and actionable practices, promoting a practical and effective application of Agile in the Salesforce domain. This book is a must read for anyone even considering attempting Agile with Salesforce.” -- Don Robins, Salesforce Training Partner & MVP

If you are using Salesforce you are already committed to getting the most out of your tech solutions. In the same mindset, you want to get the most out of team working—maybe you’ve heard of Agile and Scrum—but somewhere along the way habits have formed which aren’t achieving that goal. It can be difficult to know how to start to implement change, and even harder to take others with you on that journey. But, as Ines says, ‘it doesn’t have to be painful’.

In this book, Ines will show you how to make the most out of Agile to:

  • Motivate a team
  • Deliver value to your customers and your business
  • Develop sustainable working practices
  • Encourage adaptability and acceptance
  • Embrace mistakes

Each chapter begins with a real-life example to illustrate a relatable scenario, and concludes with practical, easily implementable suggestions that you can try immediately and recommendations for further reading. Be reassured by Ines’ warm style and years of experience; she knows what the real world is like and this book is your guide through it.
