What Clients Say
From CIOs to engineering leaders — here is what working with Yuval actually looks like
“Yuval is, without question, the best Lean/Agile partner I have ever worked with. By reorganizing scattered teams into clear value streams and introducing practical, context-aware agility, we turned a reactive culture into one built on flow and ownership. Within months, budgeted hours dropped by 25%, on-time delivery was restored, and our capacity expanded from one active contract to nine in parallel. Quality and customer satisfaction soared, and engineers finally had the headspace to innovate again.”

Steve Lizotte
Engineering Leadership | Transformation | Predictability | Scale · Idemia
“Yuval would be an asset to any C-suite as they contemplate adapting their organization to a rapidly evolving technology landscape that is likely to disrupt many businesses. We owe a debt of gratitude to Yuval for giving us the best training and a strong start on our journey toward Product-Oriented Teams and outcomes-focused delivery.”

Sunil Cutinho
Chief Information Officer · CME Group
“Yuval gave us the foundation to mature as a company. Before his involvement, our growth had outpaced our ability to deliver — releases were dragging, priorities were unclear, and business and engineering often felt misaligned. Under his guidance, we rebuilt focus and momentum. Our release cadence improved dramatically, cross-team alignment became the norm, and teams rediscovered their confidence. Faster delivery, better collaboration, and a stronger sense that everyone was finally pulling in the same direction.”

Glen Demetrioff
President & CEO · Rapid-RTC
“Rather than imposing a rigid playbook, Yuval helped us co-design a process that fit our reality — collaborative, disciplined, and adaptable. His patience, persistence, and ability to connect agile principles to real product challenges transformed a hesitant team into a confident one. The result was a faster, more focused innovation process that became a model for future projects.”

Cindy Grönberg Moldin
ex-P&G, ex-Deloitte · Gillette | P&G
“Most consultants tell you the answer; Yuval asks the right questions so you find the answer yourself. He has a knack for identifying the concepts and language that are missing and getting us to discuss them in a way that gives us a chance to improve how we work together.”

Tyson Bertmaring
COO | Head of Stewardship · Dyno Therapeutics
“Yuval has a deep understanding and vast knowledge of Agile — but more than that, he understands how organizations and people actually operate. He brought clarity, practical structure, and data-driven insight that improved flow, focus, and collaboration. Throughout our work together, Yuval constantly provided original and thoughtful perspectives on the complex challenges we faced, helping us turn theory into measurable progress.”

Roy Emek
VP Engineering · Informatica
“Yuval consistently bridges the gap between agile theory and practical impact. In an industry often distracted by frameworks and buzzwords, he stands out for grounding his work in real outcomes. Yuval does not just teach modern practices — he helps shape them, proving their value through every engagement.”

Jon Terry
COO | Co-Founder · Leankit
“By having Yuval on board, we found not just an experienced professional but also a partner in our lean journey with a passion and commitment to coach and guide us until we achieve our goals. He can swiftly move from strategy/blueprints to training a class, implementing methods/processes all the way to helping us through tough issues through hands-on coaching. This makes Yuval very valuable and influential in our journey towards lean.”

Adam Magen
VP Operational Excellence · Siemens Digital Industries
“Yuval provided very practical and grounded feedback along the way. He does a brilliant job at highlighting ways to connect and integrate enterprise delivery practices so that the activities of a delivery team can be understood at a senior leadership level while also building a clear way to incorporate OKRs at every level. His leadership helped accelerate the product leadership capabilities in our division.”

Steve Ishmael
Senior Director Product Management · CME Group
“Yuval is an endless source of knowledge in management methods, Agile, Lean, Kanban, Scrum etc. Always up to date with most recent thoughts and trends. With Yuval we managed to spread agile across our 3000 people organization.”

Yaki Koren
PMO Agility Leader · Amdocs
“Yuval has a broad range of knowledge when it comes to agile and how companies should and can implement it. He is great at providing helpful resources for understanding the best practices. I would recommend Yuval as an Agile Coach, Trainer, and Advisor anytime.”

Gabriel Columbus
Senior Transformation Coach · Wells Fargo
“Your posts over the last six months have been immensely beneficial to me. Your writing is clear, engaging, and highly relevant to the challenges I face. Your guidance has been instrumental in navigating and overcoming obstacles, especially with the diverse range of clients I have worked with.”

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about working with Yuval and what to expect
What does a typical engagement with Yuval look like?
Most engagements begin with a Clarity Call — a focused diagnostic conversation to understand the organization's current state, goals, and constraints. From there, Yuval designs a tailored engagement that might include a strategy workshop, team training, leadership coaching, or a multi-month advisory retainer. Engagements range from a single-day workshop to ongoing quarterly advisory.
How quickly can organizations expect to see results?
Many clients see meaningful improvements within 60–90 days of starting work together — particularly in delivery predictability and coordination overhead. Structural improvements (team organization, portfolio Kanban, OKR alignment) typically take 3–6 months to fully embed. The NEC Americas engagement saw release cycles cut from 18 months to 6 within the first engagement year.
Does Yuval work with organizations that are not already using SAFe or Scrum?
Yes. Yuval takes a principles-first approach and adapts to the organization's context rather than imposing a specific framework. He works with organizations using SAFe, Scrum, Kanban, ad-hoc agile, or no formal framework at all. The goal is always the same: improve delivery velocity, value alignment, and organizational flow.
Can Yuval work with non-technology teams like marketing or R&D?
Absolutely. Yuval has extensive experience bringing agile practices to marketing teams (Gillette/P&G, CA Technologies), biotech R&D organizations (Dyno Therapeutics, M:M Bio), and product-engineering-business leadership teams. Agility principles apply to any knowledge-work environment.
What certifications and credentials does Yuval hold?
Yuval is a SAFe Fellow (one of fewer than 50 globally), a Scrum.org Professional Scrum Trainer (PSM, PSPO, PSK, PAL-E, PAL-EBM, PSM II, PSPO-A, SPS), co-creator of Professional Scrum with Kanban, and a co-author of the Kanban Guide for Scrum Teams. He is also a Sense & Respond Learning Partner.
