The Digital and Controls department of the BDR-TG organization is responsible to deliver the software of the heating and cooling appliances they put in the market with their partners. When the leadership recognized that their response time & delivery quality began impeding their ability to serve their partners & customers, they started a multi-level.

It is my forte to inspire people to discover the ever-evolving world of digital value delivery and to practically collaborate with everyone that wants to contribute. I do that by being in the trenches with you: Help prepare & formulate communications, lead technical sessions until the teams can learn autonomously, help create/fine-tune and simplify your.

When I'm not helping teams working on large scale enterprise applications (those are listed as separate positions), I offer my experience as part-time software engineer, agile coach, facilitator or aikidoka to all kinds of smaller projects. I like to switch between those 2 kinds of work as I find they enrich each other.

When we develop software we rarely have/take the time to learn new habits. While the IT- industry is evolving very fast. In our day-to-day work we rely on already-learned habits and execute as fast as possible. Miyoko.Academy therefor creates specific trainings to lay the foundation of your new habits. After the training you'll know several fun, short &.

I took the opportunity to be part of a fantastic team that is helping Toyota-Europe to reap the benefits of fast, high-quality software solutions. I could play the role that's best suited for me: Team-member. I go where I can be most useful at any time. Working with several profiles and helping out on the three aspects of software delivery: functional.

Under the 'Agile in the Core' umbrella, I'm involved together with some of the best belgian agile coaches in several agile transformations. We will help the coached teams and IT management to realize their goals while keeping or improving the quality of the deliverables and shortening the time to market. We combine our expertise on Operational & Tactical.

One of the coaching projects evolved into a real single-focus project again. The Corlabs team has quite a history in automating the processes of medical laboratories around the world, using a wide variety of technologies (Java, C, C#) build on top of an RPG core. The team now reached a turning point where we need to reevaluate where we are in the market.

The Software Factory is leading the way for companies & software teams that feel the need of the market to shift towards agile software development. They send out their teams to guide others with their practical knowledge, while helping Cegeka to become more and more agile as well. Thus eating their own dog-food so to speak. I'm very happy that I can be.

The software factory team in Argenta had become a bit too big for 1 scrummaster to handle, so I had the chance to help out. I find the project interesting, because as a customer I'm very motivated to help lift Argenta software to a higher level of quality. I like the KISS style of Argenta in their banking policy. Which got them through the recent crisis.

The Xp Days (www.XpDay.net) are a yearly event that bring together the leading people & companies in the agile field from the BeNeLux and beyond. Contrary to its name the conference covers the whole agile field and is built up with sessions drenched in daily experience. This event keeps me up to date with the latest developments in software & IT management.

In their search for someone to help keep current applications up and running, the Barco team decided that they actually wanted to do things differently. Although the ASP technology is not my specialization, we both found I could still add value to the team. After investigating the current development process, we decided to group functionality in WCF.

The eDas team @ Alcopa has started with the beta releases of dotNet. So they have quite a history on the platform. They're currently reaching the limits of the early design & architecture, and are gradually refactoring towards a modern structure. My experience with scrum, BDD and some frameworks and tools that support these methodologies (like the spring &.

For 5 days I will work with the team and try to be a benefit for them:-)Technical environment include: C# 3.5, Resharper, Full Scrum approach.

Gfut is a tool intended for internal use in Electrabel.I was invited to the team because of my expertise with what is commonly called 'agile practices'. My main work is getting the team to colaborate efficiently.Technical environment include: C# 3.x, Resharper, CruiseControl, NUnit, setting up Kanban & 'writing on the wall', organising team building.

PostStation is a very large set of applications that is used at each postal office to sell the postal products and follow up. A team of highly skilled people work hard to keep this backbone healthy and expand it to the ever-changing market. I worked in different parts of this team. And started to actively use some of the agile practices in a time when it.

At sony i got the chance to see a team at work actively using some agile practices. I was asked to improve their automated build. As the time was very short I created some tools they could use to better maintain their Nant scripts.

I learned a lot in this highly dynamic team. We continually expanded a suite of products for time management.I moved from a junior to a senior profile because i was allowed to gradually take more and more responsibilties in the team. We used mainly VB6 on top of an MS-SQL and oracle DBsystems. Here I setup my first automated build and learned about.

The Map is the new front panel of a radio, used in the AWACS airplanes of boeing. I worked closely together with the hardware people to deliver the software from design over implementation & testing to delivery.It was a very interesting experience as i got to work with the product through all stages, mostly on my own because my mentor left the company 3.
