"The most actionable Agile book I've read. If you're working in an L&D or People role and don't read this, you're missing a trick. <b><i>Agile HR</i></b> changed my entire philosophy on how to do 'people' work. <b><i>Agile L&D</i></b> now brings me a practical toolkit, case studies galore and a whole host of inspiration that applies not only to learning but to every part of people experience. If you're in an L&D role and you don't own a copy of this book, you're missing out on the chance to gain some very special superpowers. It just makes sense! Why didn't this book exist when I began my L&D career? The good news is, it exists now and should be a core text for anyone in the field of L&D and OD."
