Summary

Senior Systemic Agile Coach specializing in improving flow, predictability, and decision quality in complex delivery systems.

Designs and applies proprietary system diagnostics to guide targeted improvement experiments in remote-first, high-uncertainty environments.

Key Outcomes (Representative)

  • Established flow-based forecasting (SLEs, probabilistic bands) where none existed, enabling evidence-based delivery and portfolio decisions.
