Book Description
"This is one of the most important Agile books since The Phoenix Project." —Charles Betz, Principle Analyst, Forrester Research It's no secret that we are living in the Digital Age. Technology companies make up seven of the world's ten largest firms by market capitalization. And the key to their success is the key to all modern organizations. Jonathan Smart, business agility practitioner, thought leader, and coach, reveals the patterns and antipatterns that will help organizations from every industry deliver better value sooner, safer, and happier through high levels of engagement, inclusion, and empowerment. Through his decades of experience in the technology world, Smart provides business leaders with a blueprint for creating a world-class organization of the future. Through Agile and Lean ways of working, business leaders can empower teams to improve production, grow together, and create better services for their customers. These better ways of working have overflowed from the IT department to every corner of successful organizations, taking root in every industry from aerospace to accounting, insurance to shipping. This book is not about software development. It is not a book about the computer industry. This book is about applying agility across the entire organization. It's a book that will put you at the front of change and ahead of the competition. "A true business-wide perspective on Digital Transformation and the need for whole business agility." —Adam Banks, Non Executive Director and Former CTIO of AP Moller Maersk **Note from the Authors: Purchases will result in the planting of trees and empowerment of women, in countries with the lowest scores on the IUCN's gender and environment index.

Book Description
Alpha Omega - MM Shifter Vampire Romance. Gay Paranormal Romance. Second Book in the Clan Series. Leon “They are going to sell me.” “No, I won’t let them.” I held Adrien’s cold hand to reassure him. “You can’t do anything, Leon,” Adrien’s eyes glistened with tears. He gazed at me with so much longing. I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him against my chest. “I can and I will. I’ll hurt them,” I promised. “I’ll keep you safe.” Leon does not have time for love or relationship. He is the heir to the Markson Pack, the next alpha in line. Some already question if he deserves to be the pack’s alpha since he is not a Markson by blood. It does not help that his younger brother Kian bonded with one of the most ruthless vampires. He doesn’t trust Kian’s vampire mate, Yuri, but he has no choice but to welcome him into the pack with open arms for Kian’s sake. With all these added responsibilities, just when Leon decides to let loose for the night and play the death match with the most arrogant, relentless cat alive, he falls into a deeper hole than he could imagine. And in this darkest pit, the only mission he has left is to keep that cat safe as if his life depended on it. ....… Kian needs his pack. He is a wolf, after all. Yuri is a vampire. Living in a pack with a bunch of wolves is too much for Yuri’s ego. Kian loves Yuri and might agree to live with him away from his pack, but it would break him. And Yuri would rather tame his ego than break Kian’s heart. Keep Me Safe is the second book in the Clan series and must be read with the first book called Break Me Never. Similar to the first book in the series, it is written in first-person narrative and contains the POVs of multiple characters. Intended for Mature Readers only.
