Jens have delivered CSM classes longer than anybody, worldwide.

“When I look back at my IT career, working and talking with great people, I have realized there is nothing as good as empowered people communicating closely together solving problems.

If you think back of the best projects you have been part of, it is almost certainly those projects were you as a team were empowered to take responsibility. This is the reason I bought Stora Nyteboda (in the beginning co-owned by my great friends Claus & Pia) in 2001 turning the house into a project house. Having a team working in an environment like this, not being disturbed, they will develop nothing but good things. When I later the same year first heard about Scrum I realized there is something bigger here, something interesting and promising.”
