Hi there! I’m Marjolein Pilon, Agile & Sustainability Coach from the Netherlands.
This site is here to inspire agilists in the broadest sense: Scrum Masters, Product Owners, developers, IT leads, and anyone in between.
I write about creative sessions I’ve facilitated, share practical ideas for helping teams with Scrum, and make sure every post includes something you can actually use with your own team.
I’m also deeply passionate about Planet Earth, our most important stakeholder. I work to raise awareness in the IT community about what it means to build and use technology responsibly. That means two things: reducing the harm we cause (including shrinking our carbon footprints and lightening our environmental impact), and actively using technology and its products as a force for good. Because the IT community has an enormous opportunity not just to do less damage, but to make a genuine positive contribution to the health of our planet.
I run workshops that guide participants through both sides of this: defining concrete steps to reduce their IT landscape’s environmental footprint, and exploring how their work and products can serve the planet rather than deplete it.
My dream is to help grow a worldwide movement of Scrum teams that treat the planet as their most important stakeholder. Teams that are reducing their harm, contributing positively, and sharing what they learn along the way.
I hope you find fresh inspiration for retrospectives and team sessions here. And if you need support with anything Scrum or sustainability-related, I’d love to hear from you!
