Mandy S.

Mandy supported my Scrum team as Scrum Master and Agile Coach for nearly seven months. The team consisted of myself (PO) and 8 developers, including 3 international freelancers.

Before mandy joined, we sometimes struggled to communicate problems, which hindered us from reaching our full potential as a team.
As a consequence, sprints usually did not finish completely, blockers were obfuscated. Also, some processes were unnecessarily complicated, others completely missing.

Utilizing her astonishing organization-skill, Mandy quickly created order where there was previously chaos. She significantly improved team communication and self-organization, using a mixture of really well-prepared and moderated Scrum rituals and individually adapted coaching sessions.
She was able to get to the bottom of every issue due to her fluent language skills (english + german). Thereby, she created a proper process of reporting.

All these measures lead to a much more efficient team, better mood, less stress and more pleasant sprints. Not only did we value her great profession, she also brought sunlight into our team and we will certainly miss her!

Now the departement restructured and the team got some new faces while others, like Mandy and myself, are happy to face new challenges 💪. I wish Mandy all the best for her future and am certain that she'll bring a lot of value to her next project!
