About

Arjay Hinek has been in Project Management and software development since 1998. After a decade, he found himself becoming increasingly surrounded by people using "Agile" terminology but not really being Agile. Since 2011, he has immersed himself in Agile culture and has helped multiple teams understand Kanban and Scrum appropriately, coached struggling teams and Product Owners, and served as a Scrummaster for individual teams as well as for large scale multi-team projects. Arjay has spoken at multiple regional conferences and given Agile workshops on User Story Writing, Kan Ban, Metaphors for Coaching, “Decision Making For The Product Owner,” and even “Agile for the laymen.” As a Certified Team Coach, Arjay is always looking for ways to help teams learn as they improve.
