Colin bird
Although best known for my long association with Scrum, I love everything Lean, Agile and Kanban. I get a buzz out of catalysing new ideas, collaboration, creativity and innovation to engage the full potential of teams and leadership.
I am a ‘Fearless Organisation Certified Practitioner’, a member of the TAC (Trainer Approval Community) for the Scrum Alliance and a collaborator on ScaleAgility, a Principles Led approach to applying Agile at scale.
Away from work, I try and squeeze in way too many sports and hobbies: road cycling up mountains, trail running with my dog, sailing, skiing, diving and lots of DIY projects!
Matt Roadnight
I focus on improving relationships and increasing collaboration and engagement across teams and departments. I love to work with product management and bring a more innovative, outcome based, experimental discovery approach to product development. My broad experience across many business domains and at all organisational levels provides a rich set of examples to bring theory to life.
