Another sideways look at Agile, passing Waterfalls on the way

“Using Agile, you feel insecure (-ish, especially if you’ve not tried it before) at the start of a project, and satisfied at the end. Using Waterfall you feel good at the start and crap at the end. If there is an end.” I predict I’ll be borrowing that quote in the foreseeable future!

About me

My name is Leisa Reichelt. I am an independent consultant who works with organisations who want to better understand and improve the experience they're delivering their customers.

By improving Customer Experience we know that companies become more effective and profitable - winning more valuable and more loyal customers.

In particular I focus on working with customers to map their customer journeys and identify the critical moments of truth and touchpoints.

Once we know this, we can benchmark and start measuring performance improvements, and focus energy where it really matters.
