I recently worked with Chris on a complex and difficult project which I’m pleased to say was a great success. Chris is an excellent communicator, he is enthusiastic and always puts the best interests of the business first. As a project manager, Chris is highly organised and leads an Agile approach to delivery
My name is Chris Davies and over the years I have worked as a programmer, business and systems analyst and Hogan systems consultant. I moved into project management in 2000 and obtained a post-grad certificate from the Open University, and PRINCE2 Practitioner certification.
I first adopted Agile at the start of 2008 as a project manager and had immediate success with it. Further successes followed with many different projects, and in other companies. For some years, I headed up the Agile Improvement program at a major insurance company, introducing agile governance and coaching project teams. I broadened my knowledge into Scrum and Lean/Kanban, I read books and blogs, attended conferences and ‘meetups’, and put what I learned into practice.
So what can I do for you? First, let's talk about the problems you are experiencing and your objectives. And then we can discuss the ways in which I may be able to help. Perhaps some training for you and your teams, perhaps some executive engagement to establish support, perhaps you want some team coaching? Above all, I can help you to understand what Agile adoption can do for you, and work with you to create a plan for adoption and improvement that won't cost an arm and a leg.

Agile has now become mainstream. In all sectors from web startups to financial services, telecoms and government departments, achieving business agility is becoming a necessity to ensure continuing competitiveness. But achieving business agility is not easy, and it takes time. It also takes vision, leadership, new skills and often a change of culture in order to succeed.
Aterny Agile Services can provide the consultancy required to see your unique situation from an independent perspective, and to help you transform the way your organisation manages change. Agile consultancy and organisational transformation services, standard and bespoke training courses, team and individual mentoring and coaching all help you understand the effects that Agile will have on your organisation.
Done well, Agile can provide improved solution quality, faster time to market, improved ROI, increased productivity, and possibly lower cost of delivery. It can even improve staff morale.
