WHAT CHRISTIAN'S STUDENTS ARE SAYING...

“I want to share with you how much I enjoyed taking the class and that Christian did an absolutely fantastic job. I have been agile on and off for the past 15 years and have served as a scrum master in the last 2 years. Initially I thought that I will be a bit bored, but Christian was very engaging and presented the material in a very thought-provoking fashion. I particularly enjoyed the concept of Mindset vs. Mechanics. I also felt very much empowered as a scrum master. My last engagement entailed an agile conversion in an organization that was rather opposed to change.”

– Micheala W.

“Hi, Christian — thanks again for the very insightful scrum master course training last week! I’m looking forward to observing more and asking questions to start dialogue in my state agency to help us become more agile and efficient leaders.”

– Kendall A.
