Thank you so much for the kind words. One of the reasons I love doing the podcast with other members is it feels like conferences. Me and my friends sitting around enjoying the company and talking about our challenges with work. Glad you found some use with the convo, anything you would have added to the podcast?
Welcome to the Coalition! Introduce yourself :-)
@pascal8888 to āyes andā @chrismurman - are there podcast topics youād like to hear about? join a podcast about? guest blog about? All are possibilitiesā¦
Hi there -
My name is Matt Roe. Iām new here. Andy Cleff suggested I join the community! Iām a recruiter at a company called Open Systems Technologies. We work with quite a few financial firms and healthcare companies. Any times that I find opportunities focused in Agile/Scrum/Kanban, I jump on those reqs because I love working on them! The agile community is so interesting to talk to.
About me: Iām a little over a year into recruiting and Iām passionate about what I do. I love talking with professionals and itās incredible that I get to help people find their next assignment. Iām married, a dog lover (German Shepherds are the best), and Iām fascinated by IT/Healthcare.
Let me know if youād ever like to connect! I love expanding my network and getting to know people.

Greeting! Iām Erkka and I come from the small European country of Finland. I actually ended up here through Twitter after starting to follow @Ryan_Lockard and @andybacon due to the Uprising podcasts.
I have a history of roughly 13 years in software development and solutioning what started with web design but a large part of this time I have worked with (please do not hold this against me) SAP. Agile has been a focus point of mine for the past soon now 3 years and it started for me from the point of view that there has to be a better way to do things also in large ERP projects and basically after that I have been the guy who debates against the āthis is how we have always don thisā.
Now days i am fast moving more and more away from traditional ERP and working more and more on custom solutions what focus on usability and mobility.
Greetings Erkka! Iām currently working on a massive ERP project myself using agile and SAFe, so Iām really looking forward to sharing both horror stories and successes. Welcome!
Hi Jay. The I would expect that you have your hands full. Looking forward in hearing how it goes. SAP has waterfall rooted really deep in many of the practitioners head.
I donāt know if I have that much success stories to share, but some stories as well
Howdy Gang, Iām John in Atlanta, I provide Agile Coaching and Training, so for the personaās, Iād be a cross between Terry and Charlotte. So I guess that would make me either Terlote, or Charrey.

Currently Iām between gigs and looking for new opportunities as well as wanting to expand my network. Iām open to travel and have really been to some interesting places and met some great people.

Hey everyone! Iām John and love that there is such a great community to talk all things Agile. I work for Fearless Solutions where I have two main jobs. 1.)

Hey there, Iām Gerald and am a scrum master / developer promoting agile throughout my organisationā¦ which is not always easy! Iām flying the Aussie flag although am currently based in Basel, Switzerland
Hi, itās great to be here. Iām a scrum master with Ippon US, and I practice kanban in my personal life and have introduced a lot of people to it, which has been very rewarding! Iām starting to get opportunities to do more coaching beyond the team level and am finding the need to go beyond my current network to sharpen and expand my skills. Heard about Agile Uprising and thought, that sounds awesome.
How did you hear about this place? ( wanna know if we owe somebody in particular their commission ;p)
Joking aside, great to have you here. And nice to see you posting in the retro topic on day one!
