I am passionate about technology, business, innovative management practices, and strategic Management in the digital age. My goal is to help companies to reach continuous innovation through human experiences. What makes me different?

Technology and Management are the two critical components to facing the challenges the 21st century has prepared for us. Therefore, my technological background, together with my continuous interest in improving my knowledge and my experiences in terms of business and Management, is a competitive advantage that allows me to have a complete vision of companies. Thus, at all levels, I can offer comprehensive and balanced solutions that seek innovation in the short and medium term while respecting the long-term organizational Strategy.

At the organizational level, I have worked as a change agent to drive organizations toward digital transformation: designing structures, building teams, and implementing strategic plans. At the team level, I have conducted accompaniments to promote development and skills, generating communication networks between people to achieve high- performance and self-organized teams.

NTT Data

Sep 2015 – Oct 2018 (3 years 2 months)

I helped companies in their processes of cultural transformation through consulting, coaching, and advice to teams and business units that transition to Agile methodological frameworks. Specifically, I have worked in support of NTT internal transformation processes, in a methodology definition for adapting agile methods in Bankia, and in a Cultural Transformation Project in Banco Santander España, Repsol, Orange, and Allianz:

My organiza+onal por.olio model

• Definition of the Agile methodological

framework adapted to the Company.

• Support during the logistics and strategic

preparation of the transformation projects.

• Support during the inception phase (Sprint 0):

Definition of roles, project objectives, metrics,

Prioritized and Estimated Product Backlog,

Definition of Done, Definition Of Ready, and Team

Agreements. Also, preparation and definition of

the duration of the sprints and format of the

events (daily's, sprint review, retrospectives, sprint plannings, and refinements of the Product

Backlog).

• Guidance and coaching during the iterative phase to the Product Owner to educate in the role and keep the Product Backlog Prioritized by value and estimated by its technological risk.

• Support and coach the Scrum Master to support the methodological processes and their adaptation in the Company. In addition, I help to resolve organizational impediments.

• Guidance and coaching to the Development Team to achieve a self-organized, self-managed and responsible team to tackle projects under Agile.

• Guidance and support to the management layer of the organization to educate n the new role of manager that arises after implementing the agile methodology.

• Strategic design through Management 3.0 techniques to support and accompany the GAPS that arise in the organization as a consequence of the methodological implementation. (Kudo box, personal maps, delegation board, problem time, etc.) Most Relevant NTT Projects that I led:
