Some References

It is with great pleasure that I recommend Ravneet Kaur as a trainer and coach.

I had the opportunity to participate in her 2-day “Scrum Master Training Class” in July 2017 in Munich, which was an inspiring experience in multiple dimensions.

Ravneet presented a dense curriculum in outstanding clarity. In addition to that, she enriched her presentation with examples of her own coaching and project experience.

In the practical exercises, Ravneet built effective learning groups by activating participants of different personalities and backgrounds.

Overall, Ravneet provided a training that was one of the most valuable events I have ever participated in. Both in terms of knowledge transfer and personal inspiration.

I highly recommend her as trainer, learning accelerator, facilitator and coach.

I have worked with Ravneet as Business Analyst on a strategic project within my company. 
Ravneet was the Program manager of the global project. She has a really good skill and huge experience within the Agile methodology, always available to give efficient advices or even training to make things going forward. 
Competency, huge work capacity and good sense of contact give her a natural leadership skill.

I’m very pleased to write for Ravneet Kaur as Head PMOC, Hella. As a fellow colleague, I’ve worked alongside Ravneet for her stay in Hella. Not only had she been a key player for the PMO, but she’s also become a close personal friend. Ravneet’s Agile & Program Management skills and leadership qualities would make her an invaluable and incredible addition to Information Technology and Program Management Team.

In addition, to her professional qualifications, Ravneet has qualities that make her a natural leader. She’d naturally fallen into the role of “point person” that many of us would go to with questions. She’s not afraid to take risks and often suggests new directions to explore. Ravneet was instrumental in introducing Agile way of working to her group, paved the way for Enterprise Agile Transformation, a direction that has proven to be very fruitful. She’s committed to quality, growth, and progress, and she inspires her team members to strive for the same. In short, Ravneet is a person with vision.

I was very impressed by the initiatives Ravneet takes. She is very experienced in software processes and able to document process descriptions in a manner that are easy to understand by users as well for the ones more remote. Ravneet is accurate and has good communication skills. Further I like the friendly manner in being persistent needed to achieving goals.
