I help organisations design, scale and improve their Agile operating models, from Release Train leadership and governance to Lean Portfolio Management, so that leadership, portfolio priorities and teams stay aligned.
Selected projects include
Teams run sprints. Leadership operates on annual plans and waterfall expectations. The two worlds never connect.
Too many initiatives run at the same time, everything feels urgent, and nothing gets the focus it needs. The system gets stretched and progress slows across the board.
The structure was set up once and frozen. What worked at launch breaks at scale and nobody stops to fix it.
Portfolio priorities are not translated into clear team-level plans, and dependencies between teams surface late or are not managed at all. Risks are handled through escalation instead of through the operating model.
Designing and evolving structures, roles, governance, planning and collaboration models for scaled Agile delivery.
Establishing and scaling Agile Release Trains, including roles, events, planning mechanisms and coordination structures.
Introducing Portfolio Kanban, strategic prioritisation and portfolio-level visibility to connect priorities with delivery.
PI Planning, ART Syncs, System Demos, Inspect & Adapt, decision-making structures and governance mechanisms.
Coaching RTEs, Scrum Masters, Product Owners, Product Management, System Architecture and Business Owners.
Improving cross-team coordination through dependency management, flow metrics, reporting and appropriate tooling.

I am an Agile Transformation Coach and Release Train Engineer with hands-on experience at every level, from product and team coaching to Agile Release Trains and portfolio governance. I have worked inside complex programmes across aviation, rail, insurance, retail, manufacturing and digital products.
I know where Agile breaks at scale and what holds up in practice. My focus is the operating model around the practices: roles, governance, planning, and the connection between product, delivery and leadership.
Five published guides for Agile practitioners and leaders, on Lean Portfolio Management, Agile Release Trains, flow metrics and planning.
