I am a product development & delivery consultant. I advise large corporations on ways to build high performance product teams combining my know how on a variety of domains such as agile frameworks, code craftsmanship practices, continuous deployment & delivery, hypothesis based product development, decentralized decision making, empowering teams, organizational change realization and such. My work is truly a calling as it allows me to blend two of my biggest passions technology and building teams to bring great products to fruition. Great companies have at least 3 ingredients in common – terrific people, exciting products and effective processes. My work allows me to positively impact 2 out of these 3 ingredients – process and product. In addition, I also create paid online courses which are available globally. This allows me to utilize my know how in the service of a wider audience. An advise that I try to live by is what my mother said to me years ago, “While talent & hard work are important, goodwill of others is a more crucial ingredient for meaningful & long lasting success.”
