"This book describes well what it means to work with Red Hat Open Innovation Labs, implementing industrial DevOps and achieving business agility by listening to the team. I have experienced this first hand. Using the approach explained in this book, we have achieved a level of collaboration and engagement in the team we had not experienced before, the results didn't take long and success is inevitable. What I have seen to be the main success factor is the change in mindset among team members and in management, which this approach helped us drive."

"Fun and intense to read! Somehow, the authors have encapsulated the Red Hat culture and expression in this book."

Jonas Frydal, Director at Volvo Cars

"This book is really valuable for me. I was able to map every paragraph I read to the journey we took during the residency with Red Hat Open Innovation Labs. It was such an intense but also rewarding time, learning so much about culture, openness, agile and how their combination can make it possible to deliver crucial business value in a short amount of time.

Speaking from my personal experience, we enabled each other, my team bringing the deep knowledge in the industry and Red Hat's team bringing good practices for cloud-native architectures. This made it possible to reinvent how vehicle electronics technology is tested while pushing Red Hats OpenShift in an industrial DevOps direction.

I am looking forward to keeping a hard copy of the book at my desk for easy review."

Marcus Greul, Program Manager at CARIAD, a Volkswagen Group company
