Bio
Tom Willmot
Yuliana is a highly accomplished project manager, product owner, and scrum master and an inspirational leader. In her time at Human Made she has been key to the delivery of some of our best work, expertly navigating highly complex projects, large multi-stakeholder client environments, all whilst leading our team with courage, integrity, commitment, generosity, and openness. She delivers results and brings calm and confidence to those around her. Yuliana has also been integral to developing our project management practice as we scaled from just a few PMs, to a full fledged PM discipline with cross-functional delivery teams across the globe. Throughout her time at Human Made Yuliana has also consistently been a beacon of HMs values and culture, she has shaped and guided us as we've grown and evolved.

I’ve have been a client of Yuliana's for about 7 years while she has been at Human Made, in my current company and before at my previous company. She was my Project Manager / Scrum Master and then was promoted to Delivery Lead. She’s always been exceptional at client services, at client relationships, at understanding the client requirements, and not just being that point of contact between the client and the development practitioners – but more like the glue. She really knows how to bring people together to deliver their best work. She understands agile/ agile working and product ownership inside and out. She really understands how to strike the balance between what’s important for her delivery team with a client’s requirements. Yuliana is an exceptional project manager but also her knowledge and expertise of all things software development and agile means that she has been able to mentor and coach both her own teams and clients - being a client of Yuliana's for so long I've learned so much about agile, and it was partly due to her that I went on myself to become a certified Product Owner. She really brings people together, so when I've worked with her she has brought me close to the developers as one team. She's a great listener, communicator and highly empathetic as well as being a brilliant problem solver. She’s incredibly talented – but also to boot one of the loveliest people you could meet, a truly great human. Anyone who hires her next is very lucky indeed, and anyone who becomes a client of Yuliana's in future is just as lucky.
