Agile Simplifier, Storyteller & Sticky Note Enthusiast

I make Agile click—without the jargon, fluff, or corporate snooze-fest. For over a decade, I’ve helped teams at Netflix, Microsoft, and ServiceNow turn Scrum theory into real-world results.

I co-created the Certified Team Coaching (CTC) program and Certified Agile Leader - K12 program at Scrum Alliance, and I’m a pioneer in bringing Agile to K-12 education as the creator of the Agile Classrooms K12 Framework, helping schools future-proof their students.

What’s my class like?

No boring lectures – You’ll actually do Scrum, not just hear about it.
Practical & career-focused – Skills you can use immediately.
Engaging & fun – Humor, real-world stories, and plenty of “aha” moments.

When I’m not coaching teams, I’m surfing 🏄, practicing martial arts 🥋, or perfecting my drinking chocolate ☕ (seriously, it’s next level).

If you're looking for a Scrum class that’s engaging, practical, and maybe even a little funlet’s do this. 🚀

KIM BRAINARD, CST

My trainings are unconventional where you'll "learn by doing."

🎯 Why I'm Not Your Average Trainer?
Unlike others who put you to sleep with slides, I engage your mind and spark dialogue that makes the learning stick. Imagine learning through experiences that feel more like episodes of your favorite series than a snooze-worthy lecture.

As the CEO of Agile Brain Group, I've worn the hat of all Scrum roles, guiding clients toward development that's laser-focused on delivering customer value. In my interactive workshops, you're not just a passive participant but an active explorer. You'll dive into the very techniques that have been the cornerstone of my business success and the key to my clients' triumphs.

Get ready to experiment, learn, and transform the way you think about development and customer success! 🚀
