Reviews for Agile Governance and Audit: An overview for auditors and agile teams

Needed a crash course on SCRUM/Agile and how to audit them as I got a new job in this area. Really enjoyed Chris' style and approach, very direct and no fluff. So far this book is paying handsomely and it is making me look good already at my new job. Thanks Chris! -- Airplus There are many things that I liked about this book, in particular the author's ability to energise the (sometimes dry) topics of auditing and software development with entertaining real-life examples and refreshing humour. -- Jamie Lynn Cooke “There are many things that I liked about this book, in particular the author's ability to energise the (sometimes dry) topics of auditing and software development with entertaining real-life examples and refreshing humour.” -- Jamie Lynn Cooke, Agile expert and author of Agile Productivity Unleashed
