Purpose of Writing the Book
The book aims to make value stream mapping more accessible and practical for professionals in software engineering and adjacent fields. The author, inspired by his previous consulting experiences and discussions with co-author Andrew Davis, sought to address common challenges faced when attempting value stream mapping. Many people know that they should be mapping their value streams, yet few actually execute it effectively. The authors wanted to ensure that the book reaches individuals familiar with continuous delivery, lean, and DevOps principles, helping them implement these concepts successfully.
