Christophe Achouiantz

My mission is to help organizations stay relevant in a VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) world.

 

I am passionate about Lean and Agile, and especially about engaging and inspiring people to co-create the changes needed to improve the whole. Since 2007, I have helped diverse organizations: from start-ups to public organizations, to some of the largest private companies in Sweden.

 

My skills and experience are focused on enabling Business Agility, developing Lean/Agile organizations, and creating Lean/Agile product capabilities.

 

I support and help teams (leadership, development, operations) to put on Lean/Agile lenses to discover and exploit the opportunities around them. Concretellt, I advises, coaches, mentors, teaches, and implements Lean and Agile mindsets, principles and practices at all levels of the organization.
