Discover to Deliver is a book written by Ellen Gottesdiener and Mary Gorman. It aims is to help you to deliver a product that will please your customer. To achieve this goal, the book proposes a toolbox of techniques that are taken from multiple disciplines, from business analysis to software testing or product delivery. These practices are grouped in an agile and lean approach to product discovery and delivery. The main concepts of the book are to discover options that provide values to the product, to examine the seven product dimensions, to create partnerships with stakeholders, to use three levels of planning and structured conversations. The book starts with a case study that explains how the book concepts can be implemented in practice. The concepts are then presented in a more structured fashion. The book is well written, with a very “lean” style in the conceptual sections that allows you to grasp quickly its content. It also has a “timeline” on the top of every page that will give the “position” of the current content in the global flow of the book. I will naturally recommend this book to every product or project manager involved in the creation and delivery of software (and other) solutions, but other members of software development teams will find valuable content in this book. Its well-structured content makes it a good reference when you want to get guidance on a specific project activity.
