Maybe Sarah, but I think the book makes at least three good points: (1) It is challenging to get an organization to change and to stop viewing IT/Ops as a cost center; (2) It is critical that IT/Ops understands how the business works; (3) Getting the organization to the point that The Thee Ways of DevOps are implemented requires cooperation between Dev and Ops to create the feedback loops necessary for both improvement of daily work and continual experimentation. This necessitates buy-in from management to try new things.
The book is based on The Goal by Eli Goldrat, and while it may be a bit heavy-handed in the portrayal of some characters, IMO it gets at the point that transforming a company’s culture is hard while also illustrating some of the steps necessary to get there.
