Tobias Mayer

Tobias Mayer is an Agile Coach and Trainer from London, UK, currently residing and working in the USA. He has a background in software development, graphic design, theatre arts, and team/groupwork facilitation ...and a passion for corporate enlightenment. He has 20 years experience as a trainer, 13 years in the software industry and 5 years in the Agile community.

Tobias currently works as a change agent, trainer and facilitator, providing coaching and consulting services to teams and organizations making the transition to more agile, trustful and team-centered ways of working. His current core focus is on the Scrum process, offering both public and private training classes to explore the principles and practices of Scrum.

Tobias has recently developed a fast-moving and energizing style of "immersion training" for teams that provides an extremely high yield of knowledge for participants: knowledge that is not just "learned", but embodied. His coaching work is essentially at a grass roots level within an organization, but more recently Tobias has been exploring how the Scrum principles can be applied within the field of organizational development. He is interested in how management by consensus, and the qualities of self-organization, empiricism and emergence can be used across the wider corporate culture to free the creative spirit and improve both human relationships and productivity.
