“It has been privilege to work with Jon since 2010 on the CMCV team. He is a strategic and striving Change Leader with immense passion for #Kaizen and #Agility. Jon is meticulous about everything he does. He has done extraordinary task of initiating global firm wide 30+ Innovation communities to break silos and accelerate experimentation across 10000+ colleagues. I got opportunity to work closely with Jon while leading Agile Community of practice since 2012. It has been great learning experience to deliver global Agile Fest, events etc and engage senior C-level executives to grassroots. The world’s largest and fastest Agile and DevOps transformation in banking would not have been possible without Jon’s charismatic and customer centric strategies and speaking. As a Head of APAC Agile Transformation, it was great experience to be part of Jon's Strategic Leadership team. He has rare blend of profound technical and banking skills, which would help to accelerate any banking business transformation. Great job in winning many industry wide and internal Agility awards for Barclays. This would not have been possible without your pragmatic enterprise transformation strategy. #Stewardship ”
