About

Title: Product Owner/Manager

Michelle Parsons started her career as a technical writer, made a stop in project management, and then dove in to the realm of Agile and Lean. The theme of transparent communication and collaboration that reverberates in Agile and Lean is a natural conduit for Michelle's north star: silo busting! "I have a compulsive passion for breaking down silos that frequently exist among people, processes, information, and systems."

Her background includes coaching teams and organizations in Agile and Lean, and bringing customers and delivery teams together to build great solutions. Related expertise includes: Waterfall to Agile transition strategies; Scrum, Kanban, Extreme Programming, and Scaled Agile Framework; helping teams get Lean; and JIRA and Confluence ninjutsu.
