BJORN CONJAERTS
Agile PROJECT Manager and Coach
I am a super driven Agile Coach, trainer and
Agile Project manager where communication and
motivation are of utmost importance to me. Even
though I have high demands on myself, I also have
a hands-on approach to advise and help teams when
and wherever needed. Due to my extensive
experience in development and management of
software applications, I know the challenges to
be faced when dealing with deadlines in an
IT-department.
