All Hands on Deck!
The navigator, the crew, the voyages.
Who holds the compass, what comes aboard every time, and what past crews had to say about the waters we sailed together.
Previous Voyages
-
Senior Agile Coach - Erik
“I've had the chance to work with Zoe as soon as she arrived at our Company, as I was her dedicated onboarding buddy. As from our first conversations, I discovered a very curious colleague who would ask all the clarifying questions needed to make sure we understood each other. This allowed us to uncover some unclarities in our onboarding process… that we've had rolling for years. This is Zoe's special skill : she is an amazing blindspot finder. You know, this thing in your organization's way of working that feels off… but you can't really tell what it is? She's the one who will put the finger on it, and work on improving it. And the best part? She's doing this with a unique sense of humour that turn these potentially difficult conversations into smooth and joyful moments.
Zoe is per definition the non-bullsh*it Agile Coach. Challenging the status quo and helping your teams maturing until they're able to discover their blindspots and improvement points by themselves. Her experience in diverse scaled Agile frameworks enables her to observe things from a systemic perspective and combine local team optimizations with improvements at scale - always with an open mind and a huge smile!“

Senior Software Engineer - Marko
“I have had the pleasure of being colleagues with Zoé- namely she was the Scrum Master my team, the Data Engineering Team. Zoé has a great personality, she is open, communicative and easy going which all led to us having a great relationship from the start. She has a vast knowledge not only regarding the Scrum Process but Agile Methodologies as a whole. Combined with her personality this led to, among other things, some great retros :-) She is not only fun to work with but has a deep passion for improving the work process in general and was always coming up with ideas where we as a team could improve. Having all of this in mind, I have no doubt whatsoever that Zoé would be a great addition to any company she joins and I would not hesitate to recommend her for a similar or more senior role.”
-
Senior Scrum Master - Benjamin
“Zoé has brought the Team so much clarity - and with that, reliability. She knew that the Project needed to be understood by everyone inside the department and within the Team and tackled that first. I experienced her as a very reliable Product Owner who took a lot of care about our Refinements and the Backlog. During the Project time she managed to get the Team closer to delivering value in every sprint than any other Product Owner I've experienced during my time as a Scrum Master. Everyone knew exactly where we stood with the Product and what to expect next. To be honest, of course we had challenges - but Zoé's very clear communication and backlog establishment as well as expectation of commitment or new way of responsibilities maybe, was worth it. I hope to have the pleasure to work with Zoé in the future again - it has been an amazing experience!”
-
DevOps - Achmed
“Zoé is one of the best and most knowledgeable Scrum-master/Agile Coaches I've ever met and worked with, not only does she have a deep understanding of Agile, Scrum, Kanban, and the difference between them, but she's also creative and well-equipped to conduct the sessions and help with the training fully remote. I really enjoyed working with Zoé, she helped our team professionally implementing kanban and helped me personally with her open and candid feedback to work on some of my communication issues. I would not hesitate to recommend her for the same or more senior role, and would hope to work with her again in the future”

Lead Agile Coach - Ben
“Working with Zoé was characterized by energy and inspiration. I've always enjoyed preparing team workshops with Zoé and being infected by her creative out of the box way of thinking. She is a consistently open and positive person with a relentless commitment to take care of her team and members and to support them in their personal development. She can also listen and lead at the same time, which is a huge benefit for the team.”
-
Cluster Lead - Willy
“I am very happy that Zoé was supporting our initiative, as she is one of the best and most competent Agile Coaches I have met and worked with so far. She not only has a comprehensive and profound understanding of Agile and Scrum, but also knows how to practically and purposefully apply this knowledge within the team. What stands out most is her ability to explain complex methods clearly and to respond to the individual needs of the team. Working with Zoé gave me great joy! She helped us structure our initiative clearly, optimize workflows, and guides the team confidently and expertly in methodological matters. Thanks to her commitment, we are establishing a more value-adding way of working.”
-
Head of Agile - Bart
“I've experienced Zoé as an engaging, passionate and confident servant leader. If you're looking for a keen system-thinker with great people skills stop looking further. We collaborated on workshops and helped individuals, teams and the organization to grow. I was lucky to have her as team member and colleague; Thank you Zoé!”

Project Manager - Suta
Working with Zoé as an Agile Coach was a great value to me. I took away a lot, both professionally and methodically, thanks to her strong commitment to knowledge sharing and her ability to explain complex topics in a clear and practical way. She was always approachable, highly engaged, and had an open ear for the team. I can wholeheartedly recommend working with her.
Not just methods. A way of navigating.
-
Agile & Lean as the Keel
Transparency, inspect and adapt, respect for people, flow. Not as buzzwords on a poster. As how the crew actually works together when the seas get rough.
-
AI Where It Counts
AI agents, backlog automation, refinement prep, forecasting. Practical tools for real workflows. No demos that disappear after the presentation.
-
Validation as the Compass
Building fast is easy now. Knowing you're building the right thing is the hard part. That skill matters more than ever when the wind is strong.

Eye Level on Deck
Roles are shifting. Positions on deck are changing. We navigate that together, with the people who do the work. Not from the crow's nest looking down.
