CAREER PROFILE
“Help me to do it myself” — this is my guiding principle. I’ve learned and experienced that overall performance of an organisation is not decided by how well everyone is doing their jobs in isolation but how well the individual performers play together. Understanding our organisations, our way of working, our motivations and the ones of our colleagues are one important step to achieve this. As a passionate agile practitioner, very positive and optimistic, I love to see teams succeed where they may have been struggling before, help them improve and enjoy their work. Having the skill and curiosity to undertake a systemic exploration of the entire organisation, I see my role as an Agile Coach, to be a supporting one for the organisation to be led through trust.
