Oppsummering

Henrik is an experienced agile coach with a long practical experience of working with and teaching Agile methods and mindset on both team and organization level. He has worked with Scrum and Kanban since 2009, both as developer, Scrum Master and Agile Coach supporting multiple teams. 

He has experience from a number of smaller and larger agile transformation initiatives, so he has a good perspective of what is easier and what is more difficult in a change process.

His long experience from working in large, traditional projects as developer, architect and team leader helps him understand and empathise with the often present and strong fear of change. This also gives him tools to help arguing for the need of change. 

Henrik is an eager learner, always looking for inspiration and new ideas from blogs, podcasts, books and networking events.

Arbeidserfaring

Enterprise Lean Agile Coach
Retail customer

2019-10 - 2020-04

I helped the customer, a major player in the retail industry, with two parallell initiatives. First, I supported the controlling department in defining new guiding principles for financial steering and follow-up based on a rolling quarter cycle. Through a number of facilitated workshops I helped the group produce the first version of financial guardrails with the aim to move the whole organisation form fiscal year way of thinking, towards rolling quarter-based prognosis and follow up. 

The second assignment was to help the Infrastructure and Operations department move towards a more lean and agile approach and prepare both leaders and employees for an upcoming transition. 

The assignment was both about coaching of teams and leaders in Lean and Agile, specifically when looking at the landscape from an operations point of view and providing training in Lean and Agile in general and SAFe as a particular example. The SAFe trainings were used for preparing the launch of a two Agile Release Trains and support the appointed Release Train Engineers in handling the challenges with taking on the new role. 

During the latter part of the assignment a large portion of the time was spent on doing remote coaching, support and designing and delivering a number of online trainings and workshops in agile and remote working.

Worked as an Agile Coach in a multi-site organisation responsible for developing and operating an IoT platform as a service for telecom operators and enterprise customers.

Coaching the organisation towards DevOps and continuous delivery ways ot working, by helping to bridge the gap between the sales and marketing department, development teams and operations teams all located in different countries.
