Why Agile and Cycling?

I have been an Agile Coach to help with change and transformation challenges. I am also a passionate cycling athlete. Cycling is one of the most complex and challenging discipline in sports. As in cycling a lot of business enterprises struggle to manage complex situations and find solutions for them.

To master challenging endeavors, whether in cycling or business, we need a vision, a strategy and motivation. To reach our goals we have to dream, act, measure, inspect, learn and adapt, but also to lead. Agile mindset and methods are predestined to overcome these challenges.

I help and support with the challenges of our time: The world is characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity (VUCA).

Both companies and individuals are looking for solutions to these problems.

With deep and practical experience using Agile Methodologies I design executable strategies to manage risks while securing business value.

I believe that the strengths of every organization lie in its diversity and that dealing effectively and efficiently with complex challenges requires a careful balance between data-driven analysis and interpersonal relationships.

My approach combines evidence-based methods with agile adaptability and a deep understanding of complex systems to ensure sustainable success. I attach great importance to respectful and appreciative interactions because I am convinced that motivated and committed teams are the driving force behind every successful organization.
