Bio
Lynsae Tulloch
Since the first day I met Shane he has consistently impressed with his insatiable quest for learning and self improvement in order to better understand problems and uncover solutions. He has the ability to see the bigger picture and the skills to network people, platforms and frameworks to achieve really great things. He is always willing to try new things and make the most out of learnings along the way. Shane is also a brilliant person to have on team, consistently demonstrating genuine empathy, kindness and friendship. He’s relentlessly supportive both as an Agile coach and in a professional coaching capacity. A do-er, not just a thinker, Shane is also great fun and brings the very best of himself to any situation, including his drive to make work fun and meaningful in equal measures. A true delight to have the privilege to work alongside and to see in action.
