Manjit Singh is a CST and an Enterprise Agile Coach. This coaching technique was created by Michael Stanier. I have been using this technique for over a year now and have taught it to C-suite executives, org leaders, managers, etc. I am presenting this for the first time at a Wash DC area meetup Agile Professionals in March 2018.

Manjit speaks publicly very frequently on professional topics related to Agile/Scrum professionally. Additionally, as the co-founder of a 20 year old civil rights organization (www.saldef.org), I speak publicly and have appeared on radio and broadcast TV such as CNN, BBC, Al Jazeera, and NPR.

I am a seasoned speaker with the privilege of presented at various conferences including Agile2016, Global Scrum Gathering Bangalore 2016, AgileDC 2017, AgileDC 2016, AgileDC 2015. I presented at Global Scrum Gathering Minneapolis April 2018.
