Are You Struggling to Scale Your Organization?

Do any of these sound familiar?

  • Complex, cross-functional business initiatives take too long, get stuck, and often fail to deliver the outcomes.
  • The organization is unscalable – it gets slower and slower rather than faster and faster as we grow.
  • People feel like cogs in an unsustainable machine, want to return to old times, and the best ones start to leave in frustration.
  • We spend months and $$$ executing plans – yet end up at the same spot.
  • The organization oscillates between chaos and bureaucracy. (sometimes, it feels like both are taking place at the same time)
  • Despite “doing agile”, nothing is really agile. We have people with agile role names (such as Scrum Master) who act as process police and spend time on estimating, playing poker, burndown charts and JIRA configuration. The focus is on compliance rather than outcomes.

Leave the Dogma and Process At The Door

You believe your organization needs to be more agile, but you think there’s too much dogma and process BS surrounding it. (Maybe you’ve tried it before …)

You’re looking for a pragmatic path toward agility that applies laser-focused interventions.

You don’t want an army of coaches to descend on your organization. You have great people and leaders; they know what they’re doing.

You know you have limited time to get this right, so you’re looking for some focused guidance to minimize risk and take advantage of shortcuts.

Here’s How We’ll Get There Together

  1. Align Around Value: We’ll identify your strategic priorities (what to focus on and what to stay away from). We’ll figure out how to organize in a way that streamlines work towards these priorities
  2. Tackle Critical Business/Product Initiatives: We’ll tackle your most complex initiatives with a lightweight agile/flow-based operating system where cross-functional teams are oriented around outcomes and are empowered to run fast iterative cycles measured by metrics that matter.
  3. Double Loop Inspect and Adapt: We’ll learn what works and what doesn’t and adjust ways of working to fit your context – evolving your operating system/model as needed.

Real Leaders, Real Results

Yuval helped me bring the science and mindset of agile into the Biotech world. He advised me and my team on how to operationalize the agile best practices and apply them pragmatically and practically to our unique context – with a focus on transparency, empiricism, shared understanding, and empowerment. Yuval brings a wealth of experience across many industries and is a real partner in our journey.

Vincenza Nigro – Global Franchise Lead – Hansa Biopharma

By having Yuval on board, we found not just an experienced professional but also a partner in our lean journey with a passion and commitment to coach and guide us until we achieve our goals. Yuval’s vast knowledge and experience along with keen analytical skills enable him to fit the lean principles into our organization’s DNA and to help us overcome difficulties and constraints without risking our short-term business targets. Yuval has many capabilities which make him highly versatile. He can swiftly move from strategy/blueprints to training a class, implementing methods/processes all the way to helping us through some tough issues through hands-on coaching. This makes Yuval very valuable and influential in our journey towards lean.”

Adam Magen – VP Operational Excellence – Siemens Digital Industries

Yuval is the best Lean/Agile partner I have ever worked with. Over the 2+ years of our working relationship, he has consistently brought a pragmatic and refreshingly direct approach to problem-solving, coaching, and training. He leans in, and rather than prescribing a canned academic/textbook solution, he works with us to truly understand our core problems and then prescribes a tailored solution that works best for us. We have measured significant improvements in schedule adherence, quality, and customer satisfaction. The results have been dramatic. In addition to working with our core development teams, Yuval has presented Lean/Agile fundamentals to senior executives within my organization and customers who participate in our Customer Advisory Board meetings. He is a no-nonsense straight-talker, and I unconditionally recommend him to anyone serious about agile transformation.

Steve Lizotte – VP Engineering – NEC Americas

When I asked, “Who should guide us through our Agile journey?” “Yuval” was the reply, followed by the reasons. What I have experienced has been consistent. Yuval is knowledgeable and guides you by asking the right questions at the right time to get you and your team thinking. He has a knack for identifying the missing concepts and language and getting us to talk about those in such a way that we can improve how we work together. Most consultants tell you the answer; Yuval asks the right questions so you find the answer yourself.
