The final product, which went out exclusively to the Kickstarter backers, was a book filled with stories and tools for leaders in large organizations to use as they started to introduce lean methodology to their organizations. And by leaders, I really mean anyone, at any level, who wants to bring change in the service of making their company a more flexible, continuously innovative place to work. A lot of the material came directly from the work I do with companies, and it was meant to be used as a manual for change. The book served as an MVP for my next book, The Startup Way, but has continued to have a thriving life of its own, too.
Now, I'm thrilled to announce that a new audio version of The Leaders Guide is available to everyone for pre-order. I've been working with Audible to record and update it, and the new edition includes all the original tips and tools in the physical book and a lot more, too. One of the additions I enjoyed most was doing a series of interviews with change leaders at large companies talking about their experiences. There's one at the end of each chapter, and they range from the early days of testing these methods to what it's like to scale them up in a large company.
