Martin Burns
Headshot
Member Since: 13th Apr 2018

Martin has held many different positions over two decades: business analyst, project manager, Scrum Master and even a “weird web developer guy”—all fueling his passion for continuous improvement. A Lean coach with experience in industries including media, financial and government, Martin excels at improving delivery in complex, multistakeholder environments. Instead of a cookie-cutter approach to agile, he tailors a transformation approach from an organization’s current and desired future states. A key strength is as a non-dogmatic bridge-builder—coming from a disciplined work environment, he empathizes with structured organizations that are learning to let go and change, while still bringing a restless activism. His vision for sustainable delivery organizations is “everyone can go home at 5.” For Martin, agile is a never-ending journey and “... even though some have started it earlier, we’re all in it together.”
