Consulting, Coaching and Training with Allan Kelly
Making companies and teams more effective and productive, creating great products.
Product Management, OKRs and agile
I have helped:
- Challenged teams turn things around and successfully deliver new products
- Clients and suppliers collaborate more effectively to achieve shared benefits
- Product Managers, Product Owners and Business Analysts enhance the value they deliver – while enabling teams to work better with their requirements
- Companies win new business and improve return-on-investment by accelerating early delivery
OKRs
Agile Methodologies
Product Management
By working with me, you’ll learn to:
- Collaborate effectively — with experts, customers, and each other—to deliver what’s truly needed
- Achieve business goals and deadlines by maintaining relentless focus and prioritisation, becoming more effective in the process
- Innovate and solve problems creatively by treating constraints as challenges to overcome rather than obstacles
- Organise work strategically to maximise value, meet deadlines, and minimize wasted effort
By blending modern management techniques such as OKRs, agile methodologies, and product management principles, companies boost effectiveness, increase productivity, improve employee satisfaction, and drive superior performance.
The ultimate goal? Creating a culture of continuous learning, innovation, and improvement.
As a published author of multiple books, I regularly speak at company events and public conferences. Let’s talk about how I can add value to your event. Check out my reviews on Google or recommendations on LinkedIn.
