Webinar Host

Joanne Perold

With a career spanning two decades, Joanne has worked in diverse positions and industries, including product development, coaching, business intelligence, and executive leadership. In 2008, she discovered the world of Agile and a different approach to product development and getting work done. In 2012, Joanne discovered an amazing peer group of leaders and coaches who helped her to grow and hone her leadership skills. She has deep knowledge and experience from both a theory and a practical perspective in agile methods, leadership development and process improvement, and takes a pragmatic yet critical-thinking approach to coaching. Joanne has worked with teams and organisations to transform and improve their work, using Scrum, Kanban, Flight Levels and other methods. She invests time learning about leadership and coaching models and applying them with the product teams, leadership teams, and individuals I work with. Her curiosity keeps her constantly learning and growing. These different perspectives give Joanne a deeper toolbox to dig into. Joanne is passionate about creating spaces that enable others to reflect and grow, learning from their own experiences. Her superpowers lie in coaching, product development, strategic thinking and human interactions. She brings a human element that creates safety and buy-in. Outside of work, Joanne value giving back and growing communities in South Africa and globally. She regularly volunteer my time and expertise as a mentor, coach, and trainer at local universities and user groups.
