No matter your journey, you can be assured that the ride will be undulating, time consuming, and very personal. And, you will learn that the destination is not the end, but the beginning. The Dominant Gene offers an up-close view into one leader's quest to become an Agile leader: the struggles, victories, and learnings.You're invited to join Joel as he grows from comfort and complacency to an Agile leader.
