Senior Market Researcher

I am a uniquely experienced agile product lead, having delivered agile transformations (which transcend a mere basic grasp of Scrum, Kanban and Lean principles). Deliverables include valuable product increments and increased customer retention levels by as much as 35%, generating >25% revenue increase. I achieved this via creative implementations of agile methodologies and systems thinking aiding business process improvement/obsolescence. 

I am a people first leader who delivers collaborative autonomous teams equipped & trusted to work in person + remotely. I have familiarity with Waterfall and Agile environments be it startups or larger enterprises. I use these nuanced experiences as an opportunity for integration of business analysis, requirements gathering, agile leadership and humanistic data analysis. My penchant for lean sprints and participatory team facilitation produces valuable, easily measurable results.  I leverage this to improve customer experience, innovative customer-aligned product visions + roadmaps incrementally.

Therefore all businesses (any industry) focussed on innovation, improvisation, inclusion and quality implementation are more than welcome to contact me here or via email agileproblemsolver@gmail.com

In summary, I am a solutions specialist who enjoys removing impediments. I leave no stone unturned in pursuit of measurable improvement. I enjoy listening and making room for others to shine as a selfless leader. My motto which is from my first book is, “The mind is a powerful tool when married to purpose"

Outside of work I am an avid reader, cinephile, audiophile and lover of food, art and travel. The things I enjoy include flying my drone, photography, producing atmospheric music, editing audio for private clients and coaching on a 1-2-1 basis. You see, it isn’t all Agile this and Kanban that from me! I often break out from the Scrum to try (pardon the double pun) new things. I am also handy in the lab where I create my own skincare products!

Skills: Agile methodologies, product development, scrum, kanban, lean, planning, market research, team facilitation, data analysis, requirements analysis, process improvement, agile coach and product manager.
