Derk Dreeszen

Derk Dreeszen, currently working for Cinnovx, has a rich history in a variety of industries and he likes to start conversations with the following questions: Do you work with enterprise cloud collaboration tools in a global environment? Have you seen a dentist or financial broker recently? Perhaps you filled a prescription? If so, there is a chance you used a product or service one of my teams helped build, improve, secure or create a better experience for.  Using different  Agile methods such as SAFe, Scrum, Scrumban, Kanban and Lean on a variety of project and programs in multiple industries, Derk has learned to fail fast, make adjustments, deliver success and take that knowledge on to his next assignment.

►          Success: By driving complex global initiatives, Derk has brought together cross-functional teams to accomplish a multi-billion-dollar revenue initiative.

►          Leadership: By being an example for and teaching other project professionals, Derk has been able to pass on his knowledge of project management, communication and interpersonal skills, and moved toward his goal of being a successful and transformational leader.

►          Agile Servant Leader: Derk has facilitated Agile teams around the world to update user experience designs, worked with engineers and IT professionals to develop processes to stay on budget, eliminate risk and stay focused for on-time delivery. He has changed the way companies interact with partners and customers by helping to create innovative, and immersive customer experience programs.

►          Organizational Change Management: In a dynamic, fast paced environment Derk is successful in using his communication skills, developing cross-departmental relationships, negotiating and collaborating with peers and management, to influence decision makers and promote department objectives while achieving integration with the overall strategic direction of the business during times of change.
