We Are Agile Coaches, Consultants, & Difference Makers

Learn about who we are today, how we got here, and what makes us different.

We first started to help a startup in Wooster, Ohio; then became a small-scale tech incubator; then went on to build software for corporations on an as-needed basis.

Each step led us to achieve what we do today.

We’ve now partnered with change agents at 200+ organizations, leading agile transformations at Fortune 100 companies, start-ups and small businesses.

Who We Are

Since LeanDog’s founding in 2008, we’ve found our purpose in building cultures and products that inspire and delight.

It all starts with our team. We are agile coaches, consultants and engineers with the experience and passion to drive change. We believe in a better way to work.

We didn’t always lead agile transformations at Fortune 500 companies.

“I’m a LeanDog agile coach because I want to help organizations create more fulfilling work environments; environments that make employees more satisfied with their jobs and all-around happier.”

Our Values: The Pillars of Our Culture

We're Direct

When it comes to your business, we say what we mean.

We’re transparent and honest in all that we do.

We're Curious

We’re always asking why—and why not. The more we learn, the more we realize we have yet to learn... and it’s with that foundation that we’re bold and unafraid to challenge the norm.

We're Real People

and we have fun!

Building a culture means being real— honoring your truest self and those around you. Our team is down to earth, honest, and fun.

We're Drawn to the Water

It’s always in motion. It flows. Just like your business—the only constant is change itself. 

A Message from the Captain

At LeanDog, we value people and teams over everything else. In fact, “people over process” is based on the first value of the Agile Manifesto.

Internally, we’ve assembled a network of coaches second to none when it comes to enabling your team’s success.

When working with clients, we coach them up on the importance of people. We identify the change agents who will empower the rest of the organization to live agile and adopt a better way to work.

​When all else fails, it’s the people who make the difference.

The LeanDog approach:
There is no one-size-fits-all agility.​

There is no such thing as “agile in a box.” Effective transformations begin with an assessment of where your organization is today, where you want to go, and how you’ll get there.

Organizations we'​ve helped navigate on their journey:

“You don't have to think that there are limitations. Anything you can think of, they can do. They understood it, and they heard me every step of the way."
