Jeff at Serena

Jeff joined Serena in April, 2008 as a Fellow.  His primary roles were to evangelize, teach and coach Agile within Serena; influence product direction to support Agile development; and to represent thought leadership of Serena in Agile.

In this role Jeff was able to contribute primarily through education and exposure to the latest tools and techniques.  Serena as an older, established company needed continual prodding to keep up with the rapid changes in the software development world.

Jeff learned a great deal while at Serena, especially around the issues of implementing change in older companies.

Jeff left Serena in May, 2011.
