Michael has focused on and been passionate about Software Testing and Quality for over 15 years. In product development he experienced firsthand that the way a team perceives quality, as well as adaptation of testing through context-driven principles, are key drivers for implementing agile development techniques and DevOps. He is a strong advocate for teams embracing and navigating complexity through sense-making techniques and believes that a culture of relentless experimentation is a major source of innovation. In his current role Michael enables a large organisation to adapt DevOps and Agile Quality principles and fosters an agile mindset across development teams. Having an extensive background in line management he has always seen himself as a coach for teams and people and believes in purpose, mastery and autonomy over role descriptions or yearly performance talks.
