Profile bio

About John Burke

A Diverse Driver of Change: I am driven to help grow and improve both people and processes; to truly make a difference. Even better is if I hear it’s “impossible"; my gut reaction is, "there must be a way". I deliver on these improvements through application of agile practices as I lead and bring together diverse teams of cultures and people, both across the US and on multiple continents. Recognizing each member’s diverse skills and culture, I strive to help everyone belong and grow, individually and as a team. I do this through both depth of knowledge and breadth of experience in a plethora of areas, from IT to public speaking, fundraising, education, mentoring, agricultural, medical, and more.
