Ep. 29 | Change, Empathy & Agile (ft. Athulya Mahanan)

In a product-producing organization, although the vision comes from the top down, the value goes from the bottom up. This is is why empathy for all and a willingness to change are key concepts to display within a business reaching for success. In today’s podcast, we sit down with scrum master Athulya Mohanan and discuss topics such as defining Agile, challenges in Agile transitioning and what it’s like being a modern scrum master.

 

Our Speaker: Athulya Mohanan

Athulya began her career at Reiotech, a small startup in India, where she worked as a design engineer. It was here that she was introduced to Agile principles by some external consultants, but it wouldn’t be until after finishing her masters in the US and starting her PhD in electrical engineering that she’d realize her passions lied not in a research lab, but in helping individuals achieve success through Agile. Athulya has since worked as an Agile Coach and scrum master for about 6 years, transforming teams and training others in Agile boot camps. She is currently employed as a Technical Delivery Manager at OpenTable. We are proud to introduce Athulya Mohanan.
