I will listen to your current problems with your software (development/QA/Deployment) processes and discuss options to improve or modernize your processes and practices. I will teach you about common pitfalls, and strategies to mitigate them.
I have had a long career in the software industry which started in QA Automation for software projects. I can tell you why many automation projects fail and what you can do to mitigate the chances of failure. I can teach you how to get on the path to DevOps with your team or your organization. I have helped many large companies begin transformational journeys towards; Agile, DevOps, Automation, CI/CD, better code quality, shorter feedback loops to developers, etc.
I can help you understand how to coach team members. I can teach you how to engineer agreement in your organization. I can coach you on how to create a better presentation to your leadership so that you can get buy-in from stakeholders.
