      Currently driving forward EU Sort Agile Release Train (ART) within IT Sort Systems domain. EU Sort ART comprises of over 100 team members from within FedEx and our vendor partners; Infosys,, Mphasis, Eviden, Atos and AccentureI collaborate with product managers, product owners supporting demand capturing, prioritisation and refinement activities.I organize and facilitate program-level events, such as Program Increment (PI) Planning, Inspect & Adapt, Coach/PO/ART Sync, and System Demos where teams define objectives, identify dependencies, and create actionable plans for the upcoming PI.I actively engage with stakeholders, including business owners, executives, and customers, to gather feedback, address concerns, and manage expectations and backlogs using SAFe-specific artifacts such as the Program Backlog and the Solution Backlog.I monitor the progress of the ART and its teams toward achieving their PI objectives, leveraging on metrics such as Program Predictability Measure (PPM) and Flow Metrics to track value delivery and identify improvement opportunities. I proactively manage risks by collaborating with teams to implement solutions and adjustments, and support the development of a culture of continuous improvement by coaching the teams and encouraging the adoption of SAFe practices, driving the implementation of process enhancements based on the insights gained from the Inspect and Adapt (I&A) event, and collaborating with teams and key stakeholders to implement improvements.I collaborate with DevOps teams to integrate Agile practices with CI/CD pipelines, ensuring continuous integration, automation of testing, and deployment of software deliverables in alignment with the principles of DevOps and the SAFe Continuous Delivery Pipeline.Technologies used; digitla.ai Agility, PPM, ALM. Show less Currently working on high profile projects within the FedEx Integration portfolio. Projects have included Line-haul ROCS TRIP Hybrid and X-Sort (multiple phases). These projects have given me high profile exposure to Senior Leadership (MD, VP, SVP) teams across both IT and business functions. I regularly prepare communications for steering committees and senior management communications. I have forged strong relationships amongst TNT and FedEx functions and vendors and have established an excellent track record of delivery. Show less
