consultant testimonials
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.
Kevin's breadth of knowledge and experience make him a valued speaker for any event focused on his area of expertise. If you need an experienced, proven and expert guide to project management, turn to Kevin. He will deliver exactly what you want and more - he went the extra mile with my group and we experienced tremendous results.
Agile is all the buzz, and your discussion was packed with good information. Well done!
I met Kevin as a speaker and author at a Golden Key symposium in Toronto. Later on, he presented a masterful overview of software development methodologies to my undergrad computer science class. Kevin is an excellent speaker and somebody who knows to the last details what he is talking about. Excellent communicator in all circumstances, in face to face, with a large audience or in writing within his books. I am warmly recommending Kevin.
I have asked Kevin to speak at various events and conferences over the years. His ability to be relevant, engaging and knowledgeable result in reviews that are glowing and request repeat sessions. Kevin is smart, funny and on the mark.
Kevin is a seasoned and professional consulting / services engagement manager and executive project manager. He is effective at managing client relationships and operates at a senior level within the IT services industry.
Toronto SPIN organizes conference events for members in our community on topics of interest to professionals in the software process improvement industry. Over the years, we have invited Kevin to present at two of our conference events. Kevin is a dynamic speaker that has excellent presentation skills and knows how to capture the attention of his audience. What really differentiates him as a speaker is the credibility he demonstrates through very practical real-world examples to explain the theoretical concepts. He makes the topics - that can often be boring - come alive!!!
Kevin Aguanno is a dynamic speaker and a recognized expert in Agile development. His detailed presentation on Agile project management and SCRUM techniques combined practical advice with real-world examples and was highly rated by those who attended.
Thanks so much for your very informative presentation! A number of years ago, I attended two days of Agile training. Your presentation, although at a very high level, was far more invigorating and comprehensive than my previous exposure to Agile.
Kevin is a great public speaker and very knowledgable resource in our field. I would contract him any day again to speak to an audience of any level.
Kevin is a Leader in his Profession. He is talented, creative, well networked, great speaker, company contributor, and super smart. I've had the pleasure of inviting Kevin to speak at various IBM events. His style when speaking is captivating and insightful and is based on many years of experience which he continues to share with his audience.
Your course was one of the most valuable and clearly taught courses I have ever taken. The course was heavy with useful theory and practical ideas and light on group work (which I feel is often 'filler' in other courses). In short, it was the perfect balance. But more to the point, you answered many of the lingering questions I had about how to make Agile development work in a 'real' organization. As I said in my course evaluation, you provided the missing link between Agile theory and making it work in the real world. My hope now is that my company will allow me to put this into practice on an upcoming project. But I already know that we will need guidance from an experienced Agile PM as we make that step. But I now see the real promise of the Agile methods, and have much less fear about a project running out of control.
Great session on Agile...you are a very solid and comprehensive resource. You are a very concise and clear presenter...was a pleasure to have listened to you today. Thank you very much and I look forward to future presentations.
I have heard Kevin speak/present at various past events, conferences, teleconferences, and workshops. I believe that Kevin is an excellent professional speaker and educator.
Credible. Engaging. Authentic. These are but a few ways I would characterize Kevin's speaking style. He knows his material cold and makes every effort to ensure that each person in the room not only hears the information but understands it. My confidence in working with him is only exceeded by my confidence watching him.
