My approach to Agile is evolving and I am loving the journey. My evolution has moved me closer to the outcomes and tailored approach based on the situation rather than just following the processes and rules. To that end, my approach for evolution of Agile in our organization of over 100 teams and 1700 employees is to achieve the following outcomes.PredictableCustomer FocusQualitySelf Organization and empowermentAccurate Capacity PlanningOur focus to achieve this is through one on one coaching. I find this to be the most effective way to bring change to an organization. By listening, being creative, and measuring progress, we are bringing change.

Equifax decided to convert me from a contract relationship with Hunter into a FTE position, and I was more than happy to accept. I work with a wonderful group and enjoy it immensely.Little has changed since my conversion in the way of what I do. I coach at all levels of the organization from executive (CIO, SVP, VP, Directors) to individual contributor in the organization of 400+ people. The focus and goal of my coaching focuses on the following areas:1) Increasing predictability to release software2) Increase teaming and alignment at the highest levels that will flow down to teams3) Focusing the business on the most value added items while removing the lower priority items4) Growing Scrum Masters to be more impactful with meaningful initiatives
