Summary

Agile coaching is more than just my job. It's my core belief. I have been working in agility since 2016. During this time, I have been a Scrum Master, Agile Coach, product and innovation manager, management consultant for leaders, and co-founder of two startups. My main focus has been in finance and IT. Whether in IT or finance companies, startups or traditional businesses, I have taken one thing from my experiences: In today's VUCA world, success goes to those who build and keep successful teams. And teams are mostly successful when they organize themselves and take responsibility. Now I want to help companies and their leaders build successful teams and support them in self-organization.
