“My organization has engaged in multiple large-scale agile initiatives, including engagements from the top consulting houses. These engagements produced only marginal results while requiring lengthy discovery and training sessions. Michael’s approach is different!”
“Michael immediately embedded himself within my development teams and began to teach the team what it means to be agile by doing real work. He improved the team’s efficiency by reducing our WIP and drove a sense of ownership across each agile team. My teams are performing better today, and my job as a manager has become more straightforward.”
— Paul A., Director of Cloud Software Development
“Loved this class! I have been an Agile skeptic, and this class converted me to an advocate. Period. Dot. Good thing, since most of my projects use an agile development construct. I am now much better equipped to lead those projects and to better take advantage of the approach.”
— Doug S., Space Systems Engineer

The importance of the AGILE principles was very applicable and the emphasis on the people aspects was key and as we learned, it can't be emphasized enough. The approaches to good leadership were excellent reminders and I am excited to put them into practice.”
“Michael and Scott were excellent. Their breadth and depth of knowledge was readily apparent and their ability to adjust to an audience they admitted was more experienced and mature was admirable. They seamlessly adjusted the content to tailor to the [our company’s] team’s perspective. When challenged by probing, challenging questions they did not, nor could they, respond with canned answers. They took the time to understand and address the question taking as much time as necessary.”
“I would strongly recommend Michael as an Agile Coach to anyone looking to build high performance teams.”
— Director of Development, Cisco
