What Our Clients Say

Maria Pereira Product Manager

Melissa Hay it was truly a whirlwind of 2 days of intense learning and insightful conversations. The content we covered was not just good, but great, and the insights gained were invaluable. It was a pleasure meeting you and everyone else who participated. What struck me most was the impact of our interactions. Unlike solitary course study, being part of this group allowed for rich exchanges of experiences and perspectives. I left with a much deeper understanding of how to contribute to the growth of the company I work and deliver top-notch solutions to our customers.

Em and Claire had really good practical insights for concepts discussed on the SAFe model that we could take away to try out in our environment as Product owners. They also had the skills, knowledge and the right tools to be conducting the SAFe POPM class on a remote basis, given the prevailing lockdowns in Melbourne. Several group activities were conducted throughout the two days that kept the us really engaged with the rest of the attendees while being able to learn from their experiences.
