consultant testimonials
I was in attendance at your seminar yesterday. It was very informative and picked up on different approaches I can use when implementing agile project management into MS Project.
A very knowledgeable instructor. Kevin used many real-world examples during the course which made it both practical and interesting. He is a great presenter and has a lot of experience in the field.
Kevin Aguanno demonstrated leadership in the area of Agile software development. He was authoritative and did captivate the attention of the room. He also stated that Agile methodology's could be applied to hardware as well. That generated great interest and showed thought leadership in this arena.
It was a good session and I thank you for presenting to our PM community and hope you will consider doing more sessions.
This is an excellent course that quickly introduces Agile concepts and provides real-world examples to drive home important concepts. Kevin masterfully guides you through approaches and exercises. I had quite a few 'Ah-ha!' moments.
Based on evaluation forms every body liked your presentation yesterday and appreciated your insight.
Your class was incredibly informative. I really enjoyed the fact that you permitted the class to lead the discussions and then added the important knowledge to colour in the information. I've taken a lot of courses over my career and I would definitely rank this one as the top. I really enjoyed the fact that you introduced the topic in baby steps and then expanded the complexity but not once did it feel as though it was getting overly complicated. Before I knew it I had picked up really complicated ideas with minimal effort.
This is one of the best courses (if not THE best) that I have ever taken. Yes, it is about agile. But it goes way beyond this in getting to the heart of project management, the role of a project manager, and how to be truly effective. The course should be made widely available to everyone who is on the team and beyond in sponsors and stakeholders.
Kevin has been an excellent speaker for the IBM project management community many times. His knowledge and mentoring has helped grow project management skills across the IBM enterprise.
I just wanted to thank you for an excellent session. I felt I got a lot out of the class and was able to relate to the material. I hope you enjoyed teaching the Agile PM course as much as I did, participating.
Excellent instructor and interesting methodology.
Kevin has spoken at various IBM events (conference, teleconference, workshop, etc.) and I believe that he would be a great speaker and educator at professional conferences or classes. He is well prepared and well spoken. His writing ability is outstanding. Kevin has always maintained a can do attitude with a responsiveness that is sometimes hard to find in today's busy world.
From my perspective, when I engage Kevin, I know I'm going to get a professional contribution, clear and frequent communications, and a quality product. [...] I have found Kevin in numerous interactions to be a reliable, productive person who meets his commitments, leads by example and adds value every time we work together.
Did a nice job. Keep it up. The method used was splendid.
Kevin is extremely skilled professional with incredible industry knowledge. He has spoken at several of my events and always scores very high on attendee evaluations.
I applaud your efforts to educate the 'traditional project manager' in Agile techniques. I hope that you are very effective in doing so.
Many thanks again for an amazing class and amazing finish to the semester. It was wonderful to have such a great speaker and communicator in the class. I enjoyed the interaction in this talk.
Kevin has volunteered and delivered excellent presentations to our IT Project Management community. I look forward to future opportunities to work together at PMI-Southern Ontario Chapter : Greater Toronto Information Systems Local Interest Group in Toronto.
I applaud your work and your commitment to bringing sanity to the often insane world of project management. History has shown that PMs who act as 'servant leaders' often succeed where others fail. The Agile principles and practices provide a good framework for encouraging that mindset for the PM and the team members. Keep up the good work!
He's a best selling author and project management guru of gurus.
