It was one of the most insightful and empowering learning experiences I’ve had in my professional journey.
Review
It was clear from the beginning Brad has a wealth of knowledge and experience as a Product leader and Agile practitioner. He brought empathy and his experience to make the lessons tangible and catered to a group with varied levels of experience without alienating or watering down topics.
Review
This was a great two days of training. I appreciate that we spent the entire time in interactive discussion rather than two days of "active listening". As an experienced product owner, Day 1 helped refresh me on some techniques I seldom use, but Day 2 got into more advanced topics and the participants had really meaty discussions around the topics. I really appreciate the focused opportunity to talk to peers outside of my own work bubble to compare notes and see how other organizations structure and manage their Agile practices.
Review
Brad is an excellent instructor—highly knowledgeable, interactive, and skilled at bringing complex Agile concepts to life with real-world examples. The hands-on exercises and discussions were incredibly effective in deepening my understanding, and I feel much more confident in applying these skills in my Product Owner role.

Brad has a real passion for agile work.
I've taken both the CSPO and CSPO-A courses with him, as well as working with him individually to level up my product ownership skills. The breadth of his experience bringing agile methodology to teams and organizations is impressive.
