As a Salesforce employee in an Agile coaching group, we serve over 1000 teams, many product lines, and a plethora of managers and leaders. For over 15 years, our pragmatic implementation has led to a unique organization that makes us a great place to research agility. Prior to my role at Salesforce, I founded and led multiple product startups, one of which was acquired by a company that later had a successful IPO. I have held diverse roles throughout my career, from developer, product director, CTO, and now influencer without direct reports. As always, I am better when I am part of a highly collaborative team that pursues excellence in whatever we believe is the right next action, be it true north or believing tactics is our best strategy, for now.
