Swetha Sampathkumar

A senior professional in the EdTech industry, focussed on engaging with mission-driven organizations in the education ecosystem.

I analyze business opportunity and work with business leaders to evolve nebulous ideas into full-fledged, effective, functional and lovable learning experiences. I have the organic ability to fit into cross-functional areas such as Concept, Strategy, Design, Content, and Product Management. An enthusiastic Agile Practitioner, my certifications include: 

•    ICAgile Certified Professional - Agile Coaching
•    Certified Scrum Professional®
•    SAFe 4.0 Certified Agilist
•    Team Kanban Practitioner (TKP)
•    Certified ScrumMaster®

I’m a collaborative leader and I build a shared vision among teams to enhance the collective product instinct. My sense of humor and emotional intelligence help create conducive and stimulating environments for teams to make successful products.

I thrive in ambiguous and quickly-changing situations. I motivate teams to relentlessly pursue standards and quality, in sync with business expectation. As a strategic prioritizer and an analytical thinker with a keen sense of creative comprehension and learner empathy, I help marry the practical and the ideal to deliver viable product.  

I enjoy developing long term business relationships by defining sustainable processes and communication channels with business leaders and IT groups. I have built partnerships in distributed teams using Agile practices that enable delivery of value early and often, add transparency, surface dysfunction, and drive continuous improvement despite logistical barriers. I manage expectations through an intuitive comprehension of tradeoffs with bias to action.
