Ramblings of an agile mind

Musings to share and learn

We are all told, “live your life to the fullest”; I am here to do just that. Ramblings of a Agile Mind is another step on my long journey to thought leadership. I hope to inspire and amuse you with my blogs, links and musings from my experience and those who have and those who continue to inspire me.

Hope you enjoy.

About me

Who am I ?

I have worked in and around technology and change for the past 20 years across a range of roles from Analyst to Leader. During my time I have worked on many transformations and with Waterfall, Scrum, Kanban and Agile'ish ways of working. I thought it was about time I put my thoughts and ramblings down to share with the world. Take from here what you will, I will try to provide a blend of insightful, funny and practical musings.
Maybe one day I will look back at this as the start of my thought leadership development!!
