About Jeff Traynor

Passion for strategically evolving organizations and behaviors, enabling and empowering teams to deliver on client-focused outcomes in more effective ways. Agile transformation is a part of this, but as a pragmatic means to achieving better results - not with agile, itself, as the target state. A diverse background working across technology organizations of all sizes has enabled me to not only understand how organizations operate but also how to enable them to operate better.
