Hi, I'm Diana Larsen. As founder and senior consultant of FutureWorks Consulting LLC, I partner with clients to create, guide, and fortify resilient workplaces, improve performance, and focus on frequent delivery of high value software products and services that customers want and use. http://www.futureworksconsulting.comIn addition to advising leaders, consulting with managers, and coaching teams on adopting Agile work systems, I lead team, project, and whole system processes for collaborative thinking and planning, project liftoffs, chartering, and retrospectives. I've co-authored two books; _Liftoff: Launching Agile Teams and Projects_ with Ainsley Nies and _Agile Retrospectives: Making Good Teams Great_ with Esther Derby, as well as writing articles for several publications. I collaborate with several thought-leaders to deliver high impact professional development for Agile practitioners. Since 2011, I've directed the "Supporting Agile Adoption" program as well as serving on the 2007-2013 board of directors of the Agile Alliance. I'm proud to have earned the HSDP certification as an associate of the Human Systems Dynamics Institute. Drawing on 20+ years of experience working with technical professionals, people tell me that I find possibilities where others perceive obstacles. I take a pragmatic approach to promoting workplaces where innovation, inspiration, and imagination flourish.
