She tries to survive in what feels like a heartless and uncaring bureaucracy and to work within a system where no one can get anything done without endless committees, paperwork, and approvals. One day, she is approached by a ragtag bunch of misfits who say they want to overthrow the existing order, to liberate developers, to bring joy back to technology work.

How can we apply technology to drive business value? For years we've been told that the performance of software delivery teams doesn't matter - that it can't provide a competitive advantage to our companies. Through four years of groundbreaking research to include data collected from the State of DevOps reports conducted with Puppet, Dr. Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble, and Gene Kim set out to find a way to measure software delivery performance - and what drives it - using rigorous statistical methods. This book presents both the findings and the science behind that research, making the information accessible for listeners to apply in their own organizations.

Summary
Our strengths can become our weaknesses. Our traits and habitual behaviors can become traps. In each chapter of The Coach's Casebook the listener follows a skilled coach working with a client who is struggling with one of the 12 traits that every coach will face in their coaching work - traits such as people pleasing, perfectionism, impostor syndrome, performance anxiety, and procrastination.
In each of the case studies in The Coach's Casebook, the coach shares their emotions, their thought processes and their reflections from coaching supervision as they try to understand the psychological origins of these behaviors and to work out how to help their client. This book is a great book for leadership development and has been used extensively for executive leadership for results but is above all designed to help you improve your coaching practice. It gives you practical, tried and tested techniques that you can use today to improve your coaching habits and coaching practice to help your clients to change the habits of a lifetime.

Audible version is excellent
I enjoyed listening to the coaches go through each case study, supervision and interview for the chapters - this structure worked well. I am glad I got the audible version though as I fear I may have skimmed some of the content. Useful concepts, coaching tips and tools.

psychobabble, bad recording quality
little value here unless you're thinking about becoming a family therapist. No relationship world examples the ones they present seem fake. coaching is not therapy.
