Testimonials

There are Agile Coaches (who only use the title) and there are Agile Coaches (the ones who have it). Wolfgang is of the latter kind. I got to know him while preparing a training session for Scrum Master. I was immediately struck by how much substantial agile knowledge he has and how well he can use practical examples (some of which I have now taken over) to transport the knowledge. The Certified LeSS Practitioner course fully met my expectations. Because one participant did not speak much German most of the course was in English. That was no problem at all, because Wolfgang explained and moderated everything well. In general, he is very methodical, but can also react flexibly (agile) to situations. Everyone can see that he is really behind when he represents something. I hope I have the opportunity to learn more from him (More with LeSS). From my experience LeSS creates the least pains of all existing frameworks when you have to have multiple Scrum Teams working on the same product. Most pivotal in this is that there is one Product Owner and that all moments of inspection and adaptation continue to have the same effect. LeSS also is the framework with the least amount of changes to roles, events and artifacts.

The Certified LeSS Practitioner class was great. Gained insights by working on the many really enlightening Causal Loop Diagrams. Learned why LeSS is not really a framework but more or less lean & scrum principles applied to more than 1 team. And I loved your case study, Wolfgang. Thank you very much. Very well invested time.

Real eye-opener on scalability of agile. I have learned more than I expected; this class surpassed my expectations. It helped me realize that excellence is all about adaptability.

Great Job Wolfgang, thank you soooo much, this has been quite a remarkable session!I can defintely recommend the Certified LeSS Practitioner by Wolfgang! It is a common request to secure transitions towards more agile ways of working. One has to make a conscious choice which methods to follow… It is a pleasure for me I had recently the chance to join this course. Large Scale Scrum (LeSS) is particularly addressing methods to integrate a common framework for all sorts of development works across teams based on Scrum and it integrates systemic practices and provides a slim feel throughout. A limited number of principles and rules and a reduction to the essentials and encouragement to experiment form the base. A truly engaged facilitator as Wolfgang with well founded practical experience and a programme with interaction, group exercises and a relaxed style form perfect learning conditions. In addition access to the LeSS community and much more material is provided. Instead a single event the concept is from the very bginning meant as a continuous development journey - isn´t that all one really wants?

Entrepreneur, Agile Coach

Es war für mich als CEO eines Unternehmens mit 50 Mitarbeitern, das derzeit eine agile Transformation durchführt, extrem hilfreich, im dreitägigen LeSS-Practitioner-Workshop von Wolfgang Steffens ein vertieftes Verständnis des LeSS-Framework zu gewinnen. Ich weiß nun besser, was ich in meine Rolle tun kann, um LeSS in meinem Unternehmen einen Erfolg werden zu lassen. Die 3 Tage Präsenz-Workshop waren für mich sehr gut investierte Zeit, die unser Unternehmen binnen weniger Wochen dadurch wieder einspielen wird, dass wir auf dem Weg der Agilisierung die richtigen Dinge priorisieren werden.
