Jun. 2023 - Feb. 2024GlobalAs an Agile/Product Coach, I guided the Cloud team on an exciting journey toward Agile working and a product-oriented approach. In this role, I helped the team implement Scrum, Kanban, and Scrumban, which significantly improved collaboration and resulted in higher-quality deliverables. I coached team members and Product Owners, helping them master Agile principles and product management skills. We also worked together on creating product visions, roadmaps, and prioritizing backlog, always balancing the needs of the business and the customer. I organized workshops on everything from Agile basics to advanced techniques and ensured all ceremonies ran smoothly, leading to better communication and continuous improvement. To track our progress, I implemented Agile metrics and KPIs, monitoring team performance, cloud infrastructure usage, and product statistics. As a change champion, I was a strong advocate for Agile practices and a product-oriented mindset. It was incredibly rewarding to see how this transformed our way of working and the culture within the organization. The most valuable part of this role? Collaborating with diverse teams to develop customer-focused, cloud-native solutions, always keeping Agile and a product-oriented approach at the core of our work. My toolkit includes Agile methodologies such as Scrum, Kanban, and Scrumban, product management, change management, a passion for coaching, and the ability to bring people together and help teams grow.
