Short Bio: Hubert Smits is a coach and trainer for Rally Software in Boulder, CO. He is working with teams, product managers, project managers and the leaders in the organization during their journey from waterfall and command-and-control to agile, lean, and servant-leadership. Hubert’s home is Scrum, which framework he uses as a tool to introduce agile concepts to the various roles in an organization. He teaches and coaches executives in their new role as a servant leader, or teaches product management teams to work with concepts like a product backlog and user stories. With teams and their project leads he uses the Scrum framework to validate the roles in their teams, the practices they use in the projects, and the metrics which help them and the people in their environment to keep an eye on the progress they are making, (and explores what to do if that progress differs from the predicted progress). Hubert works mainly with large, often globally distributed organizations, and visit teams all over the world. Hubert can be reached at hubert at-sign rallydev dot-sign com.
