Bio
Harvinder Singh Narula
Srinivas is a fantastic scrum trainer and I had opportunity to learn scrum from him. He imparted very good training and the course content was very relevant to my job and helps me in my work. Thank you!!

Srinivas took up the role of a process consultant after years of varied project experience. He worked on product quality improvements ( tool based and metrics guided) and also helped a key delivery unit prepare for CMMI assessments. However he was much valued for his very practical advice to software delivery/project managers. His prioir experience with Continuous Integration helped in guiding software teams to significantly improve product quality. I've found Srinivas knowledgable and very keen to impart software development best practices at a very hands on manner. He also displayed remarkable knowledge of Scrum during his time with our unit. I'm sure he will be very helpful to any endeavour to improve project execution"

I help software development groups execute projects better and advise managements how to improve performance. Largely this involves Scrum and TDD. I also train and coach software development teams on Scrum and TDD. I've been conducting both trainings since 2006 and am the first to do both of these in India. I also conducted several the CSD (Certified Scrum Developer) courses, being the first in Asia to do so (since 2011). I've stopped the certification courses as the 'Certification business' has become untenably self-serving.

Software Development Coach and Programme Management Consultant.I build capability of software teams to deliver effective solutions, via process and skills improvement.I am the first independent Scrum coach in India and have been serving clients since 2006, I was only the second chap in India, to acquire a CSP (Certified Scrum Practitioner). My areas of consulting are mainly in the area of Software Project Management and software engineering process definition and implementation. A large portion of my coaching and consulting work is related to Scrum, test management and strategy and to a lesser extent XP. I have a variety of clients, with whom my engagements provide me a wide range of experience. I am very keen to help small (less than 300 people) companies which are growing, implement a set of processes and quality standards while gaining on their competencies. Essentially processes driven, without becoming people indifferent.
