Recommendations
“ Yuval is, without question, the best Lean/Agile partner I have ever worked with. By reorganizing scattered teams into clear value streams and introducing practical, context-aware agility, we turned a reactive culture into one built on flow and ownership. Within months, budgeted hours dropped by 25%, on-time delivery was restored, and our capacity expanded from one active contract to nine in parallel. Quality and customer satisfaction soared, and engineers finally had the headspace to innovate again. ”

“ Yuval would be an asset to any C-suite as they contemplate adapting their organization to a rapidly evolving technology landscape that is likely to disrupt many businesses. We owe a debt of gratitude to Yuval for giving us the best training and a strong start on our journey toward Product-Oriented Teams and outcomes-focused delivery. ”
Sunil Cutinho
Chief Information Officer · CME Group
“ Yuval gave us the foundation to mature as a company. Before his involvement, our growth had outpaced our ability to deliver — releases were dragging, priorities were unclear, and business and engineering often felt misaligned. Under his guidance, we rebuilt focus and momentum. Our release cadence improved dramatically, cross-team alignment became the norm, and teams rediscovered their confidence. Faster delivery, better collaboration, and a stronger sense that everyone was finally pulling in the same direction. ”

“ Rather than imposing a rigid playbook, Yuval helped us co-design a process that fit our reality — collaborative, disciplined, and adaptable. His patience, persistence, and ability to connect agile principles to real product challenges transformed a hesitant team into a confident one. The result was a faster, more focused innovation process that became a model for future projects. ”

“ Most consultants tell you the answer; Yuval asks the right questions so you find the answer yourself. He has a knack for identifying the concepts and language that are missing and getting us to discuss them in a way that gives us a chance to improve how we work together. ”
Tyson Bertmaring
COO | Head of Stewardship · Dyno Therapeutics
“ Yuval has a deep understanding and vast knowledge of Agile — but more than that, he understands how organizations and people actually operate. He brought clarity, practical structure, and data-driven insight that improved flow, focus, and collaboration. His work directly contributed to multi-million-dollar wins by turning theory into measurable progress. Throughout our work together, Yuval constantly provided original and thoughtful perspectives on the complex challenges we faced, helping us turn theory into measurable progress. ”
Roy Emek
VP Engineering · Informatica
“ Yuval consistently bridges the gap between agile theory and practical impact. In an industry often distracted by frameworks and buzzwords, he stands out for grounding his work in real outcomes. Yuval does not just teach modern practices — he helps shape them, proving their value through every engagement. ”

“ 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. He can swiftly move from strategy/blueprints to training a class, implementing methods/processes all the way to helping us through 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 provided very practical and grounded feedback along the way. He does a brilliant job at highlighting ways to connect and integrate enterprise delivery practices so that the activities of a delivery team can be understood at a senior leadership level while also building a clear way to incorporate OKRs at every level. His leadership helped accelerate the product leadership capabilities in our division. ”
Steve Ishmael
Senior Director Product Management · CME Group
“ Yuval is an endless source of knowledge in management methods, Agile, Lean, Kanban, Scrum etc. Always up to date with most recent thoughts and trends. With Yuval we managed to spread agile across our 3,000+ people organization, stabilizing delivery across massive global business units. ”
