The first edition published in 2010. The response was encouraging and many people appreciated a book that was dedicated to quality management in construction projects. Since it published, ISO 9000: 2008 has been revised and ISO 9000: 2015 has published. The new edition will focus on risk-based thinking which must be considered from the beginning and throughout the project life cycle. There are quality-related topics such as Customer Relationship, Supplier Management, Risk Management, Quality Audits, Tools for Construction Projects, and Quality Management that were not covered in the first edition. Furthermore, some figures and tables needed to be updated to make the book more comprehensive.

This book provides the missing link of how to shift mindsets on how to work effectively. The word agile has moved far beyond its original meaning in helping to transform large organizations. We now know that agile is used as the tool to accelerate an organization’s ability to adapt and thrive in a world of accelerating change. This book provides the missing link of how to shift mindsets on how to work effectively. This shift requires an investigation of how we can move organizations in the way they think about work–especially work that does not easily conform to the traditional plan-driven approach. The author takes the reader on a journey to be able to think in an A.G.I.L.E way. The approach taken is reflective and allows time for the insight to understand how to think differently about teams, work, and even organizations. It is said that all organizations are technology organizations, if that is true it brings risks and opportunities that many organizations have not seen before. The framework of the book will help grow a new way of thinking and is anchored in: Adaptability; Growth; Improvement; Leadership; Experience. In order to make the full transition to thinking in an A.G.I.L.E way you will need to challenge everything you think you know about leading and working in large organizations.
