Testimonial from Michael Bonamassa (Organizer, DC Area Scrum Users Group):

Thanks for the excellent presentation on “The Importance of User Stories” at our DC SAFe Users Group Meetup.  Your presentation was very well received and the material was great and highly relevant to teams wanting to establish agility.  I particularly like the way you masterfully weaved in real world examples to illustrate the points you were making throughout.  It was great that the audience engaged and your ability to work through the questions and comments while still maintaining the focus and pace of the presentation was great.  I hope we have another chance to see you present at a future meetup.

Testimonial from Pawin Chawanasunthornpot (Organizer, Agile Professionals):

“Aakash and Vivek came to present about “How to design your own Retrospective” which provide an inside of how everyone who works with Agile teams can customize and adapt their own Retrospective based on a good set of principles collected from Agile experts. They were very well prepared and also provided handouts to the audiences which were useful for later practices. The presentation was informative. Both Aakash and Vivek worked well together as presenters and showed great passion in the Agile space.”

Testimonial from Harlan Bennett (President, IIBA DC): 

Aakash presented this topic to our group of business analysis professionals. Great presentation combined with great presence made for an engaging and insightful evening on the benefits of an agile mindset and how it empowers product owners and organizations to be successful when agility is fully embraced. Aakash was able to demonstrate to our group how we each can fit into the "agile model" and how we can bring immediate benefits to our various organizations. There were many insights and techniques that I know our members will use to bring additional success to their companies. 

I would personally recommend Aakash to show you the benefits of Agile!

Testimonial from Brian Sjoberg (Organizer, Washington DC Scrum User Group):

As the organizer of the DC Scrum User Group I see many presentations. Some great, some not so great. Maria and Aakash were on the great side, they did a fantastic job presenting on the topic of “The Customer CAN Always Be Right”. They were able to give concrete examples that engaged the audience. Additionally they provided the audience with some techniques to help ensure their customers are always right. I talked to a few members after the presentation and they were complimentary and said that it was a very useful presentation.

        I would rate his Scrum Master training program 10/10. 
I really got so much values than the money I paid and really thankful for Coach Aakash. He is indeed a Subject Matter Expert when it comes to Agile Practice. He gave more than what I paid for. Real practical approach to Agile project delivery. Thank you, Aakash. Trust me, I will keep recommending you to anyone who asks for advice on Agile training. You are very good at what you do 👏 Alicia Thompson, PMP®, CSM®
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        Aakash is more than a facilitator. I met Aakash back in 2020 when I sent employees to his various Agile training sessions. Our employees always had raving reviews. I finally got the opportunity to experience his wisdom for myself during a Scrum Master class in which he so thoroughly and expertly facilitated. Aakash was patient and went above and beyond what was even needed to pass the course but to ensure each person was prepared for the real world of scrum. I left feeling empowered and with an additional wealth of knowledge you can only get from someone who is well read and truly cares about people, their development and their contribution in whatever field they are in. I would recommend Aakash a thousand times over. He puts his whole heart into what he does. Hats off to you Aakash and keep on being a trailblazer.
