Ajay Reddy has been helping technology teams and organizations improve how they work for more than a decade by emphasizing a hands-on approach, collaborative experimentation, verified business outcomes, and improved team satisfaction.
Ajay began his professional journey as a software engineer where he was exposed to Agile approaches like Extreme Programming. He soon transitioned to coaching others in adopting Agile mindsets and practices, constantly seeking out ways to improve this process based on the variety of challenges associated with different settings.
In 2009 Ajay founded Code Genesys, a Lean–Agile consulting boutique. In 2010 he co-developed ScrumDo, a Scrum and Kanban management tool, with the express purpose of facilitating Agile implementations across the industry. Over the past five years, he has helped organizations both large and small employ Scrumban with great success.
As the chief product strategist and lead coach for ScrumDo, Ajay is helping teams and organizations in 145 countries realize the benefits of Scrumban. He teaches Scrumban across the United States, India, and Europe and is a regular speaker at Scrum and Kanban meetups and conferences across the globe.
In 2012, Ajay became disillusioned with the debate over frameworks, seeing it as putting too much emphasis on the frameworks rather than on the human systems and business concerns those frameworks were created to facilitate. He believes using frameworks as tools to effectively support desired outcomes is more important than the mechanics of any framework. It was this realization that led directly to his spending the last two years writing The Scrumban [R]Evolution.
