I'm the author of 'The Agile Consultant', targeted to coaches and consultants guiding clients to enterprise agility. I consult with enterprises worldwide that seek to benefit from agility, and help clients adopt agile mindset and practice. I train teams in agile principles, and guide them to agile practices and behavior. I help clients enhance their agility by continuously improving their practices, processes, relationships, and culture. In my engagements I play every role required, from trainer to scrummaster to strategic agile coach, in order to help clients achieve their maximum agility. I've held project director positions at firms like Intel, Cap Gemini, NEC, and Citicorp. At Intel my team created the Intel Solutions Methodology, a lean process for delivering IT projects with discipline. Clients include Microsoft, HP, Ericsson, Sprint, SEGA, Credit Suisse, Deluxe, U.S Dep't of Treasury, Blue Cross Blue Shield, se2, and People's Republic of China. I've been writing on agile topics since 2000 for publications like TechRepublic and DZone, and frequently present at industry and Project Management Institute conferences. I’ve written three previous books on IT consulting. My course "Consulting Skills for IT Professionals" has been presented to thousands of IT experts across the U.S. and around the world. Under contract with O'Reilly Publishing, I present monthly online classes in 'Core Agile' and 'Advanced Project Management Techniques'.
