Joe Little

I am an Agile coach and trainer.  A bit of history:

• got an MBA a while ago
• took Ken Schwaber's course in 2005
• co-trained 8x with Jeff Sutherland
• became a CST (Certified Scrum Trainer) in 2008

I also have other Scrum Alliance certifications.

You can find me at our website at leanagiletraining.com. You can see the way I approach lean-agile-scrum via my blog. And via my newsletter at LinkedIn.   And via my two book, Agile Release Planning and A Scrum Introduction.

Happy to help you have success with Scrum, and to have more fun! 

If I can help as a coach or trainer, or in any other way, please contact me.

Some further background on me:

* With an MBA, I tend to put more focus than others on Business Value, by which I mean all the practices in identifying and confirming where the BV really is.

* I had 20+ years of experience as a consultant to well-known firms in New York, London, and Charlotte.  And in Richmond, VA, and San Antonio, TX. I have been a Senior Manager in Big 6/Big 4 consulting. 

* In recent years I have worked with many clients of all types, and been invited back often.

* I helped start Agile Richmond and Agile Columbia (SC). I started Agile-Carolinas and Agile Charleston, which have had some great speakers. I have several times been a speaker at Agile 20xx and at Agile Tour 20xx.  

* I have a BA from Yale and an MBA from NYU. 

* Here's Little's Second Law, which one day came to me:  "People are remarkably good at doing what they want to do."  Much like "where there's a will, there's a way", but with a twist.

If you would like to talk, please contact me.
