Silver Medal winner of the IBPA Book Awards 2024.

In the high-stakes world of Parts Unlimited, a struggling auto parts company, the road ahead is littered with seemingly insurmountable obstacles. A new IT initiative, code-named Phoenix Project, represents the company's best hope to halt declining sales and reverse its fortunes. But dark clouds are on the horizon...

When several disastrous system outages rock Parts Unlimited, all eyes turn toward the hapless IT department. Newly minted VP of IT Ops, Bill Palmer's future and that of the entire Phoenix Project are suddenly hanging by a thread as angry executives, infighting teams, and technical debt run amok.

But help arrives in the unlikely form of Erik, a prospective board member with a mysterious military past. Through Erik's mentoring and uncompromising methods, Bill begins to unearth decades of organizational dysfunction. He confronts the silo-driven operations of the IT department and uncovers crippling political minefields that transcend technology.

With technical debt mounting, Bill must revolt against entrenched lures and survival narratives that have long paralyzed the IT organization. Can he rally his team into a cohesive unit and capture the hearts and minds of skeptical leaders and developers?

Volume 1 of this graphic adaptation by Gene Kim and illustrated by Mike Collins vividly brings the bestselling book The Phoenix Project to life on every page. Join Bill's rebellion as he leads IT out of stagnation and toward a soaring Phoenix-like rebirth.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Gene Kim has been studying high-performing technology organizations since 1999. He was the founder and CTO of Tripwire, Inc., an enterprise security software company, where he served for 13 years. He is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author whose books have sold over 1 million copies. His works include Wiring the Winning Organization, The Unicorn Project, The Phoenix Project, The DevOps Handbook, and the Shingo Publication Award-winning Accelerate, among others. Since 2014, he has been the organizer of the DevOps Enterprise Summit (now the Enterprise Technology Leadership Summit), studying the technology transformations of large, complex organizations.

Mike Collins moved to Wales in 1985 after an abortive stab at a career in the law, in London. Despite his law degree and experience working in law courts Mike decided that he enjoyed the fiction-based life of comic book characters over the fiction-based statements of clients. He has since illustrated for such comic book publishers as DC and Marvel among others and for such popular characters as Superman, Spiderman, and Dr. Who. As well as comics, Mike is a storyboard artist for children's TV shows, primarily the BAFTA-winning Hana's Helpline, and live-action film. He also storyboarded on the film Ultramarines: A Warhammer 40,000 Movie and on the television shows Doctor Who, The Witcher, and Sex Education. Mike was married to Karen Collins and they have three daughters, Bethan, Rebecca, and Rhiannon, and a granddaughter, Annie. He lives in Cardiff in the United Kingdom.
