Bio
Jonas Jaconelli
I had the pleasure working with Anders making a SAFe implementation happen. He was assigned SPC and I worked as an RTE. I was impressed by Anders. He has a very good knowledge of SAFe and he never hesitate to share his knowledge, around the coffee machine, by keeping classes etc. He has the required knowledge and also very professional in his appearance. He has a lot of integrity and is a strong believer in agility and Lean/flow. We also shared the hard truth and where to improve with management. I didn’t hesitate to have this presentation with Anders, he is a god communicator. I can recommend Anders highly if you are planning to run an agile transition with focus on SAFe.

Anders has a superb understanding of lean and agile from many perspectives in a software organization. And he is truly passionate about sharing his knowledge and help people and organizations improve. He is courageous in speaking hard truths (in a way that make people listen) and he has lots of integrity. I have really enjoyed working with Anders over a number of years.
