Unicorn Project (The Unicorn Project: A Novel about Developers, Digital Disruption, and Thriving in the Age of Data)

This book was written by Gene Kim as a continuation of a previous book. Project Phoenix. (The Phoenix Project) In this book, the protagonist is an experienced software engineer Maxine, who is sent to the team of a failing project as punishment for the failure, which she was not particularly involved in. Her supervisor advises her not to show up on the new team so he can bring it back to him in a short time. But... Maxine doesn’t listen to him and goes into all seriousness, trying to improve everything around him. Interestingly, this book is a direct sequel and you can see on stage your favorite characters from the project Phoenix. In addition, the main role in this book is not with the manager, but with the individual contributor, Maxine, who raises the engineering culture and just does what she thinks is right. Where this will take her and the entire company, which is on the verge of great transformation, read in the original book - I promise that it will not be boring.

P.S. The last book showed the impact of managers on development processes, and this book shows the impact of individual contributors.
