Independent experts without the risk

We hire independent experts on demand from a pre-qualified pool, and provide quality management and alignment. This way you can work with the best expert for each given job and you don’t have to pay for their idle time. A board of core experts led by Thomas Biro, author of Digital Readiness Framework makes sure work is aligned to the framework and qualiy is high.

Experts with strong culture fit and experience from the trenches

We work with people based on how well they match our core values, and we make no compromise. Experience from the trenches is also a basic requirement to joining our community. We look for skill and ability, nothing else matters.

Strategic Consultant

“Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.” Albert Einstein.

I love solving problems and believe that we can solve any problem in an organization with simple ‘’no-brainer’’ decisions. I also hate to talk about myself, so here's six quick things about me and my work.

I have solved multiple problems of different sizes for numerous companies. The real magic is in the process, which is why I always focus on how to solve complex problems to be: easy to understand, easy to implement, cost-effective, and the upside ALWAYS be more significant than the downside.

I always wanted to build things. I’m obsessed with numbers, ideas, structures, processes, and culture.

I always do what I say and always say what I do!

I respect everyone’s time; I clarify the basics and communicate short and to the point.

This is how I sum up my job. I help companies find and solve bottleneck problems.

I don't like to advertise this fact, but I'd do this job for free. It's my passion.

To help an organization in digitalization, one must have done at least some of the above. How can you train programmers if you have not experienced the thrill and pain of creating code? How can you advise executives if you haven't owned a digital company? How can you talk about sales OKRs if you have never sold anything? How can you understand IT, if you weren't involved in technology related projects?

Our founders digitalized entire companies, led and participated in big-bang agile transformations, wrote agile contracts, did agile before it was cool, trained more than 2000 people to agile, advised CEOs of billion EUR companies on strategy, agility, OKRs and many more.
