About Olivier

Olivier has been an Agile coach for over 15 years and is regularly invited to speak at international Agile conferences. He founded and co-organizes Agile Open Montréal, a highly successful event that sells out every year.

Building on decades of experience in diverse roles (software developer, architect, project manager, and director of software development at a major marketing company…), Olivier has cultivated a rich and versatile expertise. He first “learned by doing” Agile in 2001 with the ambitious www.bell.ca project, which won the award for “best e-commerce site.” That success sparked his lasting curiosity for all things Lean, Agile, and DevOps.

Throughout his career, Olivier has consistently relied on collective intelligence to achieve sustainable results. Today, his focus is on helping organizations become more robust and teams more fluid, strengthening their “adaptability muscles” using #FluidAgile approaches. Olivier is a certified trainer on FAST Agile and a FAST consultant.

FAST & Fluid Agile Course

Understanding and Implementing FAST Agile is a two-day in-person (or four half-day online) training that covers the what, why and how of FAST. The course explores roles, meetings, complexity and dynamic reteaming; introduces modern product management, visualization, forecasting, reflection and improvement practices, self-management and innovation at different scales. You will learn how to start FAST experiments, build collectives, choose the right scale, avoid pitfalls and interface FAST with SAFe and Scrum. Finally, it explains why FAST’s network-oriented dynamic teaming is essential for business adaptability and innovation. Participants receive a FAST Agile Nascent certificate.

Olivier combines his trainer certification with real-world experience to make the class highly engaging and tailored to your context.
