I'm a software development manager with a solid understanding of agile XP practices and principles, and how to apply them according to context.I enjoy helping teams work effectively together, focussing on communication and collaboration. I am a strong believer in cross-functional teams, and actively work to blur the lines between roles. I focus on the value change can bring, and have the ability to influence team members to do the same, leading to positive attitudes towards change. I have a genuine interest in understanding others’ motivations and I can adapt to meet their needs. I generally have a facilitative and trusting approach, and relish providing development opportunities for others. I communicate effectively with people from different areas of the business and varied backgrounds. I have a strong technical background, having been a software developer for 11 years prior to my move into a leadership role.
