For teams and multi‑team groups that are drowning in work‑in‑progress and struggle to see what truly matters across products or initiatives, and for organizations ready to move beyond clogged backlogs and performative Agile to a system that actually works.

Consulting engagements help teams move from “everything is in progress, and nothing is really moving” to systems where people can see priorities, negotiate capacity, and finish more of the right work. The focus is on humane, visual systems that make it easier to coordinate across roles, functions, and time zones without adding brittle processes.​

Working with Jim and Tonianne, teams:

  • Map real workflows end‑to‑end, exposing where overload, delays, rework, and surprise emergencies actually come from.​
  • Co‑create boards, policies, and cadences that fit current tools and culture, so people can see what matters, what is stuck, and what can safely wait.​
  • Get ongoing coaching so new practices stick and evolve instead of fading after the first workshop or enthusiasm spike.​

Typical consulting formats include:

  • Systems Check (90 minutes): A focused session to see your current system, surface critical issues, and define a small number of high‑leverage changes you can make immediately.​
  • From Board to System (4 weeks): A guided engagement that turns scattered tickets and dashboards into a working system with simple rhythms for planning, review, and improvement.​
  • Custom team and portfolio work: Deeper engagements on value streams, cross‑team dependencies, and Right Environment Exercises tailored to your organization’s specific environment.
