About
Rick Waters is a Business Agility Coach and Trainer with more than 15 years of technical software development experience, and almost 10 years of Agile leadership experience. Rick primarily trains Scrum, Enterprise Scrum, Business Agility, and Kanban.
Rick's work with the Boy Scouts has lead to a renewed effort to transform the world of work by starting with adolescents who naturally gravitate toward self-directed and self-orangized ways of working, with self-selected teams. Over the next few years, Rick hopes to expand this work to the Girl Scouts, and Boy and Girls clubs, of all kinds, across the USA. Educating and empowering our young adults, Rick believes, will be the key to a more enlightened and innovative workforce.
Rick now works with some of the most amazing trainers in the world at Wisecrum Associates - coaching organizations that need help, delivering innovative and creative classes in Scrum and Kanban Systems.
