- Vladimir TatarinovChief Technical Officer @ ExnessWe have worked closely with Denis Salnikov through a very intense period for our company. What was started with two pilot Scrum teams has later turned into a full-scale company transformation resulting in the LeSS setup of seven teams. Denis has not only introduced the change but helped us to make it sustainable.
- Claudio CicaliTech Lead @ N26When Denis joined our team, we were for sure lacking some guidance. Denis embraced the challenge and helped us perform at our best, making everybody in the team proud to be part of it. With his guidance we defined and shaped our Scrum implementation to achieve a pleasant, conflict-less and efficient work pace.
- Mona LauSenior Product Owner @ smava GmbHAs an Agile Coach, Denis managed to improve our Scrum events and the team's velocity and effectiveness in a very short time span. He inspired me and ignited my passion for Agile all over again. I can honestly say that this has been the best Product Owner - Agile Coach experience in my professional career.
- Gerben de GraafEngineering Director @ BackbaseDenis Salnikov demonstrates a highly analytical approach, which aids decision-making and analysis of the process.
