Key Skills
● Coaching – adept at engaging teams and individuals to buy into change objectives, set goals and achieve
them. I focus on guiding the creation of an organisation and environment that can support and grow teams
by listening, questioning and drawing out the internal challenges.

 

 

● Agile Methodologies (at Scale) – transforming and leading scaled Agile development programs with global
organisations such as Solera EMEA (8 BUs across 6 countries using Scrum) Vodafone (15 teams for 6
years using SAFe) and Barclays Group (25 teams for 12 months using DAD) and guided the adoption of
Agile and DevOps.
● Stakeholder Management – In my coaching and delivery roles at both MphasiS and HP, I have become
skilled in understanding, engaging and communicating with stakeholders at all levels of the organisation to
create a shared vision and a cascade of complementary goals and objectives.
● Multi-Domain – worked for leading IT services firms (HP & MphasiS), financial services (Barclays), telecoms
(Virgin, C&W, O2) and government (Gwynedd Council, MOJ & DWP).
● Agile Delivery Management – managed a team of 200 (15 feature teams plus support staff) at HP that
achieved 22 consecutive releases before transitioning to “develop on cadence, release on demand” model
to support the migration of the core stack to all Oracle products.
