Thank you James for your help during the 1.5 weeks we worked
together. During this period you trained and coached us in agile
planning techniques and test-driven development. Your
experience really showed as you were able to adapt the so
called agile techniques into our work in critical real-time
embedded software development in such a short time. Your open
minded coaching style was especially appreciated by our mainly
senior level developers with over 10 years experience each.
"Best training that I have had", as one quiet Finnish attendee put it.
Your knowledge and experience in embedded agile is unique.

Thanks for your time and coaching during your visit to Finland.
I think you were able to nudge us forward to a point were things
start rolling. We start the combined backlog planning this week
and the testing acceleration trial will be chosen next week.
It seems that your authority was just the right medicine for our
team. I think that we now have an opportunity to get some more
experience with the agile tools and test driven approach.
