Hi there, I’m Gabe. My passion lies with people. My first technology based job was in operations on a support team where I had a great leader who taught me the power of enabling people. Even through something as simple as helping someone with a job function that they were previously unable to perform. I saw the joy that came from that empowerment of the other person when they were given the freedom and ability to achieve what they wanted even in a mundane work function. I wanted more.
My first foray into agile development and product management came as a similar surprise while I was working on a small development team. We were challenged to deliver a usable product in two weeks. My team didn’t think this was possible but with some helpful coaching we learned some techniques which enabled this. The change was dramatic. To go from developing in a vacuum to seeing customer delight, shortening the feedback loop and move closer to the cause and effect of my code translating into happiness the effect was electric. I realized that if this way of thinking and developing software could make my work better, it could make others’ work better. We spend ⅓ of our lives at work. If we make work better. We make life better.
I got my start coaching 15 years ago when I worked at a drug and alcohol abuse rehab center for adolescents. I learned a lot about behavioral science, psychology and conflict resolution. I spent time coaching around those areas as well as professional, career and life coaching. That is where I learned how powerful it can be just to listen to someone who is desperate to be heard.
I’ve spent time as a Scrum Master, Product Owner, Agile Coach and as a leader of organizations.
