I am the only Polish Certified Scrum Trainer, CST accredited by Scrum Alliance and LeSS-Friendly Scrum Trainer accredited by LeSS Company.
I have been involved in software development for over 20 years. I’ve worked as a software engineer, project manager and Scrum Master, so I’ve learned product development from all sides. In 2010 I founded ProCognita to help leaders create extraordinary organisations through mentoring and training.
I work with leaders, managers and executives from Polish companies such as inFakt and multinational corporations such as UPC or Coca-Cola. I help them discover the real causes of the obstacles they face and develop a company structure, processes, tools and techniques to achieve their goals in a changing market. I want to make real and lasting change, so I look for different sources of inspiration, learning from my clients, other experts and you.
I share my knowledge through my blog and podcasts. You can meet me at conferences and meetups on four continents. I founded ALE Krakow with friends, which has become Poland’s second-largest Agile community. If you haven’t been to our meetup yet, I warmly invite you to join us.
Certified Scrum and LeSS training
I adhere to the principle that theory alone gives you nothing. Lectures and watching more presentations will not improve your skills. You can only get results through experience and looking at a problem from different perspectives. During my training, I use Training From The Back Of The Room techniques to help you learn through exercises, group discussions, short lectures and simulations of real situations. I share my knowledge and experience from working in Polish and international companies.
Wondering if it works? In surveys, 96% of my course participants indicated that they would recommend the training to colleagues or friends.
The book ‘Biznes Odczarowany’
The book ‘Biznes Odczarowany. Scrum: how to achieve goals when everything changes’ is a summary of my observations from Polish and international companies. In 2023, the second edition of the book was published, in which I describe why they need to react quickly to changes in the environment and how to do it with Scrum. In it, I show why a company needs agility and how to achieve it in the real world. I answer both why we do certain things in Scrum and how we do them.
In the book I’ve collected the most common problems I’ve encountered and good practices that have worked in other companies.
